MannKrafted HandKrafted Trio Pic......rare shot

It is not very often that I have three of my best works all in the shop at the same time.
The blades are both sold to members of another site, as is the copper Esperanza in the center. The heel shafted putters are new, never left the shop, while the Esper is home for a new black shaft, green headcover and new pictures for the family album, LOL.
As I was snapping these pics, it hit me how cool the past year has been. I didn't see this being possible a year ago and now I am pushing beyond the blades and loving the crafting of the Anser-style pieces.
Check out the pics and let me know what you think.
Thanks,

It is funny, to me all of the tech that goes into the putters of today. I love the fact that someone can locate the sweet spot within .002", but there is no substitute for building a putter from a piece of steel with your eyes and some very basic tools to find the same spot. I won't even try to say that you can be as accurate without the computer software, but there have been a lot of putts made with putters that never saw such a tech device.
I think there will always be a market for old school putters and designs. If I could channel TP Mills, I wonder what he would say, ;-).
Thanks for the nod, Richie. I need to get one built that I can send you to roll and give your thoughts on. Hang tight and I will make it happen before the summer is out.

The back flange on the grey one looks like damascus. Spectacular.

One day when my life gets back into a better equilibrium I will be having you do some work.

Rohlio,
Good eyes. That lefty is indeed cut from Damascus steel. It was my very first try at using that type of steel and it went very well. I love the look of the layers and will be doing more in the future.
Thanks again,
