'bama 'mascus & Elm
« on: April 04, 2008, 08:25:00 AM »
Hope the recipient of this won't mind me posting a few pics.....

Just got this one finished up.
I got hold of a billet of Alabama Damascus, via E8ay, to cobble this together for a hunting buddy.

OAL is 7-3/4" with a 3-7/8" blade. The handle is (I believe) stabilised Elm burr, with 4mm mosaics & an 8mm pin.

Just got a sheath to do now!
