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.

Very elegant - can you fillet a trout though ?.....:-)

I actually had it made for the King Salmon.
I was on a Alaskan River for 9 days this past July, could have used it, as
we caught a lot of kings, as well as Leopard Rainbows. Ray finished the
knife 2 weeks after I got back, I guess timing is everything, but next year
I'll put it to good use.

That's a pretty knife! For some odd reason, I now have an image of you
wrestling a King Salmon with the knife clenched firmly between your teeth.
Perhaps I need a drink.

You have a fine looking weapon - hope you have lots of use for it.
