Members bkingery Posted January 21, 2011 Members Report Posted January 21, 2011 UHHHH Critique what Bob. I think you should just tell us what part of perfection YOU think is wrong with it and then the rest of us will try our best to do half as good as that. I bow to you sir. :notworthy: :notworthy: . I truly am not worthy. Peace and Love Bryan Quote Don't like sugar in my coffee But love coffee with my sugar!!!!!

Chief31794 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 I don't understand this at all Bob, I carve just like you, swivel knife in right hand, stamps in left with maul in right, but yet the end result isn't quite the same by like about a million miles. This is some of the best work I've ever seen and I've been to the Stohlman Museum. I know people might think this is sacrilage but to me I think your work is head and shoulders above anyone else including Al Stohlman's. Absolutely beautiful!!!! I've never seen anyone as good with a swivel knife as you. Ken Quote "Life's too short to carry ugly leather"
pepin1948 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 Probably, Bob, you are the best in the world...I´m not the only who has this opinion... Congratulations Quote

Ambassador pete Posted January 21, 2011 Ambassador Report Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) Beautiful work as always! Question- if you don't mind. What kind (color, wt. brand) of leather do you use for this project? I have a whole slew of oils that I need as the leathers all have some differences. The last batch was so "white" that I had to use my old reliable neats+chocolate dye mix after tooling just to give it some color. And is that med. brown paste? Also- did you use a double beader to make the tracks on each side of the beads, or do you cut the lines , bevel, and use a single beader. Thanks for the great work. You are an inspiration! pete Edited January 21, 2011 by pete Quote
