Hey Bill, there was a rigging knife down here with a scrimshaw handle that I wanted for the longest time. They wanted $390 for it. I just couldn't spend that much, but man it had a whale on one side and a tall ship on the other. It was gorgeous. It sat there for years. I'd stop in now and then to admire it, never able to bring myself to buy it. Finally one day it was gone. I always said one day I'd take a Myerchin rigging knife and make my own scrimshaw handle for it.

Darn it, now you got me thinking about that knife again!!! Nice link by the way. Nothing like a good knife.
