These are joined parts. Not a finished knife.

May be finished tonight or tomorrow. Medical Appointment etc. will interfere. But it's almost complete.

This is the dressy version, then there will be a casual versions too.

How do you like it? I'll appreciate comments.

Gary,

The Barnes Black Tie knife?

Looks great. Cannot wait to see it finished.

Larry

Thank you Larry,

I like that. "Black Tie 97". This one does have some dressy features I'll explain later. The mirror blade and the machine screw mounted scales.

There's another version on the bench too. The "97 Black Out". This one will have more of a "Tactical" personality.

I appreciate your comments.

Gary

Gary,

A knife James Bond would be proud to carry and look good in his Tux pocket too I bet.

That there is a good looking knife . Out of all your style / md 97's that one has a rugged sturdy look with the scales at the bottom 3/4 .
Larry
I like the black tie name . It has a good ring to it and I can't wait to see the ( Black out )

Thanks
Kurt
