BF2S Forums can i get everyones opinion on something?

If you just finished it... why are the pics from 2005?

The blade, its so sharp that it cuts light and looks blue!!!

I don't like the pearl handle but the s on the spine is awesome

You....made that? NICE! you must be really good with your hands.

it is very nice, but unfortunatly i wonder what it will be used for, i mean your hardly going to peel potatos with it are you
a display piece i could live with but the other alternative uses of it arn't favourable

ok ill give you this since you live in england, but you need to open your mind.
the knives i make are tools, you can do MANY things with them. i carry a knife with me everyday, everywhere i go. its a fixed blade about two inch blade length with a really nasty curve to it, like a bearclaw. it sits on my left hip, opposite side of my 1911 kimber custom carry II. i have never had to pull it to defend myself, but i have used it in multiple ways to cut rope, open boxes and many other everyday tasks.
with that being said, i have multiple knives in iraq and afghanistan right now being used for god knows what. alot of my customers are active military or law enforcement....one of my knives that i sold to an EMS guy was used to cut the seatbelt off of a victom of a car accident.
i realize that all you see right now in england is negative bullshit regarding knives, but please keep an open mind when regarding other countries...we dont get drunk in pubs and stab people here, we have guns for that

Parker you are the man. Those are some great pieces of work.

10/10 for ALL of them. You rock.

i went to a hammer in this weekend, and got a really cool picture that i thought i would share with all of you.

a hammer-in is when a group of people get together (in this case a few close friends) bring metal, make a big ass fire and forge a bunch of knives. im the one on the left with the tongs and pliers lol, my buddy is the one that likes to drink and play with red hot metal.....

Looks nice. Speaking of knives, what ever happened to your 2142 dog tag one?

So how's the knife coming along?

I was gonna ask if that's pearl but I guess so

So you made a knife with a pearl handle for a dude? But.....it's pearl. I mean Ivory is acceptable (think Patton's pistol handle) but pearl is, well.....gayish, isn't it?

Top notch job though, i sure as hell couldn't do that shit.

ah, i dont really care for the pearl....and that is actually a simulated pearl in an acrylic material. but i dont argue with customers. lol, if someone came and said they wanted the PINK mother of pearl i would do it, no questions asked.
but definitely NOT my style. and thanks for the compliments.

If that's what the customer wanted then you did an awesome job. 

... Which leads me to my question..

How would I go about getting a custom with the same style push button, mechanism,  but a bit sharper lines (tantoier) in the blade -damascus of course ?  I'd like an an Ebony handle with gunmetal brushed guard/matching nickel pins?  And most important, It would have to work reliably and hold a nice edge..  Yea... And for kicks, could you etch my Family Crest on the blade?   Iit ain't that complicated a design. That shit would rock!...

Nah, but seriously -can you do that for me?  An how much? PM with quote if you prefer.

-Thanks

*edit.. Holy Shit, I'm glad you are ok.  Be careful and get better.

VEry nice knifes, im making knifes myself but not as professional as you. Mines are often in horn and somekind of wood with a normal blade. It is a fun hobbie

damn, you have nice work. Ever make anything bigger than a knife?
