Avatar suggestions for member-B. Harsey
I noticed Mr. Harsey doesn't have an avatar yet... might I suggest one Sir.
To those that haven't researched his past concerning knives:
Here is a pic of one of his custom knives I found while researching our highly respected bladesmith, Mr. Bill Harsey Jr. It was taken from the website of the JFK Special Warfare Museum.
I may edit, repost , resize and get the detail as accurate as possible. Very nice.. Mr Harsey.
Any other suggestions... do I hear a Smatchet coming???

Ah yes... another Spec Op inspired knife. Anyone that likes SEAL inspired knives will like this one. Although, I think the Yarborough is more appropriate for this board, Sir.

Yarborough is best one for here. The Silver Trident shown is, among other places, now in the collection of the UDT-SEAL Museum in Ft. Pierce Florida. Boy do I love having my picture taken at a knife show after some bad kids made me stay up all night.

Hell, I couldn't get the detail to show when I shrink it down to avatar size.. so here is the original.
I know everyone was already aware Mr. Harsey designed this knife.. but I thought the pic really does it justice.

This knife is one of the pre-production group I made before we made the first delivery to USASOC from Chris Reeve Knives.

The color is way off on that shot, I have a better pic of the knife at the office. Will get it posted tomorrow.
Hey Bill, anytime a dentist starts getting that friendly, you know the pinch is coming. Watch your Six.
