Nice Hi Power
I also like the old school two tone look Here's a Sr1911 that has been reworked hard chrome with melonite finished slide she is great shooter. Long list of things that were done too long to go into the details Nothing was left untouched on this pistol along with plenty of machine work
Just ordered this tray, so I won't have to ask my wife if she knows where I put my keys, pen, wallet, pocket knife and etc. For some reasons, the Lady of the House is happier than I am, even though I bought it for myself. 馃槈
Well I didn't buy it today but fired it up for the first time a couple of hours ago: homebrewing of mead. It's my first attempt ever at brewing so I'm starting out small. Good quality, organic honey can be a little expensive as well so wouldn't want to waste too much if I cock it up.
After a tough and exhausting week at work, I decided that I should reward myself.
It happened that the artisan cutler I was following for a long time was living less than 10 kilometers from the last customer visited.
The story is that the wood used is 5000 years old oak tree that started to fossilized/mineralized in peat from one of the largest marsh in France.
Inlay are mammoth's ivory from Siberia, as an animal counterpart of the old wood.
Cutler is a really nice chap, having his workshop in his backyard. We had a very interesting chat about knife making technics and watches (he was wearing a Panerai with leather custom strap)
