He has a similar one on his website that is in the catagory "sold knives" _________________________ G Snyder RKS #63 RKCC "REMEMBER, YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG BY COLLECTING OR OWNING THE BEST" http://www.knife-collectibles.com

boardrider Knife Enthusiast Registered: 01/12/06 Posts: 685 Loc: Malibu CA, USA	For some reason my pictures did not all load?? As you can possibly notice when I ordered mine I sent a picture of yours taken from Ward's site and drew on it how I wanted the shape I asked the shop to fatten the handle slightly, to put a wider larger curve in the handle where it meets the hilt at the spacer stack and I asked for a radiused but cap. I even took the printed picture from Ward's site and drew on it with pencil complete with arrows and tracing paper how I wanted the changes from yours for the shaper of the handle to see what I was after, can you notice the difference? The other difference I noted when recieved the knife is that my but cap is not paralel with the hilt like yours is, this i didn't ask for...after all RMKs are hand made and all knives are not the same. By the way sorry about the finish on the knife as it still has the shop preserative on it, also if you click on "attachments a full picture of the knife appears.
