Here are my W&B's. They need polishing, but all are shaving sharp.

This one's a work in progress, I was going to put a different blade in these scales, but it didn't work out, and I like the lines of the W&B frameback better.

That's the latest, I'm looking for pictures of the black handled one...

The other was the bone handled round point special that I bought from you around new year's time. The one you were having all that trouble honing, remember

That one...

this little bugger has the toughest steel I've worked with.
The new project is like it also, my 4K seems to be cutting like a 6k
and trying to polish it is even worse...

Just finished this little heavy weight. Olive scales, Ebony spacer, brass pins and bearings with a CA finish. Buffed up the blade and threw it on the stones and it pops hair. Can't wait to test drive it tomorrow.
