Very nice looking knife, Plaza has some great looking custom knives. Are you going to carry it? I have too many nice knives that I don't carry myself.

Great question, Peter. It perks up my days to have one of "those nice knives that you really ought to carry" in my pocket every day. There truly has not been a day without one (or two) in my pocket every single day since my 5th birthday. Damn shame my kids can't say the same as you'd get permanently expelled at school now, as my 17 year old son said yesterday, for being "caught" with Advil or nail clippers. My 20&1/2 year old college junior daughter's purse has the little side pocket with her #10, though, and she's been shooting her soon-to-be legal EDC Colt for 6 years already. Oooops, off-track, sorry.
Really nice knife!

I probably won't carry the Dowell. I won't have it in my hands until the New Year, as we are going to be moving back to North America just before Christmas.
I do carry the wharncliffe Dowell (see attached) with me, except when I am on an airplane.
The other picture is of the Dowells I own, although there is one missing from the "family" photo.

Steve and Peter
Thank you for your comments.
Peter I have a Davison as well, but not a wharncliffe. Todd makes an excellent folder. They sell like hot cakes when you see them on the Internet.

He is my Davison, not a great picture, although.

Then a Menefee wharncliffe I got early this year from Rick.

Thanks Steve. It was the first one like that, that Rick Menefee made, hence the prototype. I am very happy with the knife.

I am addicted to wharncliffe blades. Between wharnies and RMK, I am broke most of the time.
