I still don't understand What is it??? I was going for coffee grinder of some sort, cause the little brown things remimd me of coffee beans! Except for the one at the bottom left who looks like a cockroach! LOL

From your comments " I'm almost ashamed. Almost." You should be ashamed Robert, on two accounts.

1. I spent time and effort far above my normal lazy ways to get my entry and you beat me with this snapshot? (I gave it an 8) At least lie about the effort you put into such nice images.

2. Granted that it is a new santoku, but that inconsistent burr that shows up like a melting frost line is in need of some stropping.

Melodious feel? Have to rethink the idea of metallic microscopic trilobites :).
Just realizing that all the lines in the image are cut by the small creatures. Amazing.
Anyway, a striking, different image, my only 10. Should have placed much higher.

A knife with water droplets? Simple, but very elegantly done. Some superb detail in the blade. Only thing I'd like to see is some brighter highlights..it seems a little flat in the tonal range, but that could be what you're going for? Anyway, just nitpicking :) (no points docked). Top 10 in the challenge for me!

ginsu?

I don't think I will be voting because of "If it is recognizable as an object - it is not an abstract" which I don't entirely agree with...

i hope this is a santoku knife. great work, like a pencil drawing.

love this - possibly a carving knife chopping something?

Bear, so glad you went with this one. And outstanding abstract in my eyes.
