    Great job Tony. For me red with gold web is the best out of these four.

    these two are for a forum member who joined just so he go send me a PM. He has no posts yet, maybe these pics of his finished knives will get him to say hello the first one is a Blue Mammoth Tooth Kopa, i really like the color on this one.





    this next one is a Redwood Burl Kopa, this was a plan B unfortunately, his first choice turned out too hard to work with. i think the burl is a suitable substitute.

    is this gonna be a full scale Kopa or a thin polished SS ? the way it is now reminds me of an old original Worker and a Economy.

    those new ones are beautiful as usual Tony, soon we will need a Kopa family pic from you

    Tony,
    I have no idea what was the first choice, but plan B looks gorgeous.

    I will echo Roman's sentiments - that Redwood Burl is exquisite !!!

    That 'new' Kopa looks like something I was coincidentally about to ask you actually ! Gret minds must think alike.... if you are thinking what I am thinking ?!
