"nother knife.
« on: March 16, 2005, 05:35:59 PM »
Here is a skinning knife I just finished. The blade is Karasuando laminated Swedish blade.  The guard is brass, and moose antler.  The handle wood is dyed eucalyptus. The spacers are leather, the amber you see is remnants of an old amber hammer.  The sheath is figured maple dyed to match the knife handle and moose antler. The leather on the sheath is attached with glue and very small brass screws.  The whole rig has a traditional look.






Thanks for looking! :D

Another beauty!!! I really like the way you fit the blade to the handle and the blade polish itself.  Not easy to do right.
