Wow Robert.. That's perhaps the biggest compliment I have ever received! Thanks so much. Those knives you did are very nice and tight on the inlay, the pieces fit very nice, that takes some skill to do. Great Job.  Do you have a site where I can see your other knives?

Hello all...well Mr. Finney, I must say, after viewing your work, I feel in retrospect that I am and always have been a Cutler by trade and at heart, but you sir, are a "True Artist", with extraordinary skills.!!  Where I have made and finished thousand's of customized pocket knives, you have brought another level of knife art to the world....

OUTSTANDING.....there maybe no words to explain your gift...

These are some of my early efforts with hand files and sanded Abalone Pearl knives..late 70's....

One is an old Colonial Scout, and one is an old Imperial Scout....the AP was found in the cellar's of CK.60+years

Until about 5 minutes ago, I thought this to be about the most beautiful customization I had ever seen on a folder-- Then I saw your Buck/Abalone  creation-Lordy, they are both so absolutely perfect, I can not decide !!

Extraordinary work, my friend !!
