I did this one for my dad's B-day (He's 86). It was my second pocket knife I've done scales on. The stone is some Az. Rainbow petrified wood that we picked up along the road outside of Hollbrook Az. When my kids were younger & it had just been laying around in the garage. So it has a little sentimental value to us. Had a hard time getting a large enough piece cut without fractues. Hope you like it & thanks for looking.

The color is awesome and the workmanship is as well. Tanya

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
