My Presas knife came in!
What a gorgeous piece of functional art! The damascus steele is beautiful, smooth, and bloody sharp. The belly has a nice gentle curve and the spine has a great thumb perch. The handle is finely finished and polished. the leather sheath even smells good! It has the name "Presas" embossed on one side and the name "Worden" embossed on the other, which is fitting given the impetus and sentiment in spawning this piece. I am very happy, and my wife sais I have a new phallic symbol. Perhaps I am so enthralled because i miss Remy, but who cares.

Hey Dan, hows bout posting a pic of you and the knife? :)

I saw the pics of the prototype (I think that was it) and thought it looked really cool. Is there a face on yours? It was hauntingly beautiful seeing that outline in the other.

Hey Dan,
Could you give a comparison of the Presas knife to the Gunting. Perhaps scan pics of them side by side?

Yours,
Dan Anderson

Whoop is back. I just got back in town this evening. I'll see Whoop tomorrow. Then we'll do the do.
The promotion I got was to Lieutenant. I will probably be assigned as a Chief Medical Officer in a batallion. Thanks Rich, for asking.
I don't own a gunting Dan, sorry.

Yes, the great Whoopass is back in town. :D Was whooping it up at the Notre Dame/Michigan game yesterday. Very happy ending for Fighting Irish fans:cool:

Will bring the camera tomorrow night to take a picture of the knife.

Take care,

Whoopass,

I to watch the game and was amazed at the less than one yard from the goal Touch down. Even then Notre Dame Announcers were surprised. Note: This does not mean that Michigan would have one otherwise, it only means I am surprised at this call. :(

Wishing to see the pictures. :D

Rich,

I was amazed that Lloyd Carr decided to decline the penalty and let Setta kick the go ahead field goal for ND. Why not take the penalty and increase the length of the field goal ? Besides, it was a Big Ten officiating crew :)

Check out the Uechi Ryu forum. There are pics of the knife. Meanwhile, I'll take pics of MAO and his knife tonight.

Take care,
Brian Johns

Kaith,

I attempted to upload a photo of the Presas Knife. The photo was in Adobe Photoshop JPEG format. However, I keep getting the following: You have attempted to upload an invalid type of attachment. The valid extensions for attachments are: gif jpg png txt zip jpeg pdf.

Any help would be appreciated.


Sincerely,
Brian Johns

Thanks to Kaith for posting the picture on my behalf. It must be a browser problem on my end. My knife is on the left and Dan McConnell's knife is on the right.

That is a good picture, though it is hard to see the damascus steele. We took a few other pictures as well. Perhaps the Great Whoopass will one more?
