    New Jens Anso!!!

    Well not exactly, I just placed an order with Jens for an Amok but just couldn't contain the excitement. Delivery will be a long 11 months. I ordered with a few changes, it will be manual instead of auto and the blade will be finished like this, hopefully, (http://www.greatlakescustomknives.co...rtie/Talon.htm)and blue mammoth ivory scales instead of Stellar sea cow! I just love that Dragon Skin damascus!!! I am excited, hope you guys like! So what you think? This is the knife I ordered:

    Dang, Thumbs, you're on a roll with the customs! I've been drooling over that knife for a while. The combination of materials is really excellent.
    Ask me where I got my awesome SUPERHAWK!

    More like Mid-Cal now

    Be Prepared

    Just goes to show how much materials can change the look of something. I normally don't like Anso's work (too "high-tech" looking) but that's one sexy knife.

    Love the materials used...
