Middle is a local Black Walnut handled Nesmuck style for Roaring bulls brother Steve

Bottom is a Pecan handled short scalper

Wow!  Jerry what's going to happen if you run out of lawn mower blades and band saw blade before it stops raining.  As usual you have made some beautiful knives.

I think that middle knife is just the right size for a good 90% my needs...I somehow feel I just might hurt myself with that bottom knife.. :shock:

Nice looking knives , Jerry....all of 'em.
