RAM Shortcut

[sdcoxx]

Hello Cafe Members,
This is my 4th Don Cowles "Ruby Shortcut" knife... I enjoy cutting his knives...
416 stainless steel bolsters... really spoil an engraver...
I highly recommend this knife.
Take Care,
Stephen

Stephen,
WOW
I was wondering what you have been up to
the sculpting on the leaves is fantastic
as well as the rest of the engraving
thanks for posting

Hi Stephen

Those knives look great and so does the engraving. Very nice balanced designs for the appropriate space well done!!!

I will make a suggestion (you may well be doing this already) Once you have stippled the background, very lightly go around the edges of your main cuts to tidy the walls of the engraving and give it a bit of sparkle. It also adds to the illusion of depth.

Cheers
Andrew
