Just want to say thanks for the recommendations from ROFF to Ray Rogers
Handcrafted Knives. I put in my order a year ago and working with Ray on
the handle input, length of blade, and personal touches he was able to use
his master skills to craft a fillet knife for me.

The handle is Bird's Eye Maple, which is my favorite wood, with a touch of
turquoise on the top end. It's a 9" flexible carbon steel blade. He even
put my name on the blade opposite side of his logo. Some have commented
it's too nice to take to the field, but like a violinist once said to me,
it doesn't do any good sitting in the case.

Wow....... You're really not gonna use that beauty on some slimy ole fish
now are you? Send it to me and I'll make a proper display case for it and
put it on display for you - right here where it can be really appreciated...
I'll even do it in Bird's Eye Maple - if you send it overnight
express.........

Very nice,

Bob S.
