Back of the BaliHa'i
We are, at long last, ready to unveil the back engraving for the BH... it took a number of revisions, but I'm pretty stoked with the result. Sure, she may be fully clothed (I know this particular fact will disappoint some :-d), but she's a beaut!
After several somewhat less-than-successful attempts to draw up a pic ourselves, we actually went out and comissioned a professional comic book and pinup artist, Gene Gonzales, to design Ms. BH. Gene seemed a natural choice - he's an ace at drawing tikis, and between working for such small & unknown companies as DC Comics, McGraw Hill, and Hewlett-Packard, he has even found time to do work for the Ron Jon Surf Shop and Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville.
More on Gene, and links to his sites, can be found on the BH site at:

(The full assembled samples due to arrive from Switzerland any day now, and I will promptly post some more pics... didn't realize just how hard it is to get good snaps of engraved shiny 316L steel! )
