Title: Finished my 2nd (Osage Caper)
Post by: farmboy on March 19, 2008, 11:46:00 AM

Here are some pics of a blank I put some handles on. They are osage and zebra with tung oil (1 coat so far). Blank is 1095 from a fellow tradganger...... It came to me in this condition, what a treat!  Still have to wrap it in leather.

Thanx Larry I absolutely love this knife! I am still in search of some birds eye for ya.

Enjoy and please feel free to critique I

Very nice.  I really like the blade design.  Only thing that could make it nicer is if it was in my hands......  
You did a fine job shaping the handle material.

I'm goin to keep making knives but I think I'm goin to try the self or board bow thing next.  I have asked for the bowyers bible set for my birthday I think between it and the knowledge here I should be able to get it done!
