Ive been too long in getting to this. I was trying to figure a way to do justice to the craftsmanship and I finally realized I won't be able to. These are both way to nice to describe well and the pictures don't do them justice.
I received 2 new kifes from Drac for a trade I made with him for a couple of custom Kilts.

The first was a Hunterwith Afzalia Lea (exotic wood and stabilzed) and the second was a Sgian Dubh with Brown Dyed Burl.
Here is the Hunter:
The fit and finish is top notch. The Afzalia is almost tranlucent, almost 3-Dimensional to look at. This is definatly a new family heirloom.
The file work is called Vine and is amazing.
Here is the Sgian Dubh:
The burl is awesome. It adds so much character to the nife.
The build process was documented in this trhread:

Drac was great to work with and I would highly recomend his work.
