Got this knife a couple of weeks ago. Charlie calls this one his "Holt Collier Special". 7-7/8" OAL with a 3-3/4" S30V blade. Scales are Natural Camel Bone. Feels great in hand and I really like it a lot so far. ![[Linked Image]](https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4592/27767933429_95035e9172_z.jpg)

He does nice work. I like the natural camel bone, I always have Dale dye mine, but I like that

Charlie does a great job on knives and has a lot of variety. I used one of his Bobwhite's on a buck a couple of weeks ago and have a special request on the way from him now.
That natural camel bone looks really good. Like Judman all I've had has been dyed blue...which I liked...but I think that natural tops it. Nice knife twofish!

Very nice! I'll agree, the scales look great.

That camel bone is nice. You normally see it dyed but I think yours looks better.

Nice knife! Always thought his sheaths were just as special.

I like Charles sheaths but I like Larry Parson's or Ken Honeycutt's work best. I never really thought much about Charles stamp being on the front and being that big before. It is a departure from most other makers though.
