Thanks Craig. Yup .... classy looking and cheap. I think that is what I said about my first girlfriend! But, heck, everything was cheap back in those days!!!

Another new on in (and one more on the way!) 2018 smooth olive bone.

Nice one Dennis! The one I've had for a while is the color of the lighter areas of your knife but even from end to end, on both sides. I like all the different olive color variations.

Did you see the Alligator Skin and Lizard Skin ones that are out. I kinda like the Alligator. I'm thinking on it.......

Thanks Craig .... the coloring is why I got it (and I looked at a number of them before deciding on this particular one). Oh ... and I did more than think about the lizard skin. It's inbound!! Took a close look at both ... and decided I liked the slightly more irregular pattern of the lizard over the alligator.

It's here .... the 2018 lizard skin. What I really like about it is that the tight pattern gives a really nice textured feel to the covers.

SWEET. Great scores. Grats - well done.

"Shoot, I can remember paying 25¢ for a gallon of gas! " I remember paying less than that. Remember gas wars?

Nice Dennis!

Beautiful handle, and yes I remember gas wars. Lowest I remember was 19.9 cents per gal, routinely saw .25.

Just in! The 2019 with turquoise dyed curly maple covers. I was hoping for a little more dramatic turquoise coloring ... but nice, nonetheless!

Here's a comparison shot with the blue dyed curly maple:

I like the dark grain of the wood but like you would prefer a deeper turquoise. Nice all the same.

Yeah Sid ... really liked the Case pics I saw .... but, when you order sight unseen, you "takes your chances"! Just glad there is enough of a color difference between the blue and turquoise to set them apart from each other.
