Very nice Aaron. I can see why you couldn’t separate them. They have aged well.
Ooh, love them all @Ravenscry! But especially that first one, with the super unique ring around it and those sweet carved wing tips! I’m always partial to all turquoise knife wings as well.
Wowza! Good buy @Ravenscry. All 3 are great, but the first one with the ring is my favorite…so unique! That’s what’s so great about this thread, more and more wonderful Rainbowmen and Knifewings keep appearing😆.
Wow, loving all 3 of your new babies! Honestly, I’d have snatched all 3 up as well ![]()
Thank you all for your kind and enthusiastic comments, @TAH, @StevesTrail, @OrbitOrange,@Bmpdvm, and @Phoenix7.
I thought the carinated ring on the first one was reminiscent of a naja, and that’s one of the first things Tom pointed out. @OrbitOrange mentioned the ever-so-slightly carved wing tips, and that’s one of my favorite things about him. I also like how each of the bodily elements are separated.
I’m glad you guys and girls enjoyed!
I’m going to be honest, I’m not particularly a knifewing fan, but these little guys are just too beautiful. I think the third one’s my favorite, although the turquoise in the other two is really wonderful; it glows.
And even though I said I’m not a big fan of them (but I still appreciate the work in each), they look awesome on your denim shirts ![]()
I now we’ve discussed it previously, but I would love to find a Knifewing that is made up entirely of turquoise and jet.
Thank you, @Ziacat! ![]()
@Ravenscry All three are wonderful, but that first one especially is so distinctive with the circle, his stubby little wings, floating hat and wee skirt! Mind you I also love the second one for the dragonfly “wings”, the fine bezels and the gloriously milky turquoise. And the colourful third one is also chef’s kiss. What can I say, you were right to buy all three and keep them together!
Your enthusiasm and descriptive response was a treat, @chamekke! ![]()
P.S. I thought about adding that they were like young kittens, you want to adopt all of them together so they can keep each other company. (Then I thought that might be too fanciful even for me!
)
Nonsense. ![]()
They all came together in the same lot, so in order to get the first two, I had to pursue the group; which is fine, I admit I have a weakness for them. Though some may call it an addiction.
@Ziacat once told me that they use social media, so maybe the shelter I put together for Knifewings is actually ran by them. ![]()
