Some of you fellas know I was looking for a knife to give my oldest daughter as a gift. I wanted something a 17-year-old would find attractive with a unique look, but still suitable for actual use. Mike really came through and met the tight timeline I'd boxed myself into! I believe the girl will like it and hopefully put it to use on her elk hunt in November at the latest. A big thanks to Mike!

Woot! Woot! That’s really nice. She should be proud to carry that one. Mike makes top notch knives.

I think Mike said they're Glen's burl with bronze resin, but hopefully, he'll chime in and correct me if I'm wrong. He had a few different blocks and I thought these would be the right choice.

Yessir, Mike can put out some really beautiful knives. And they only seem to get better as he goes along.

Ha, I like it too. She's actually not much of a girly-girl anyway.

Legacy knife... well done.
