Camo actionwood!!
« on: September 06, 2008, 07:36:00 PM »
Here is a set I finally finished for a fella up in canada. They are made with scraps from his Zona Longbow. Both are handmade from recycled saw blades. Pins are 1/8" brass rod and 3/16" brass tubing. I also made the sheaths for these too. 6-7oz veggie tan with chocolate finsh and brass hardware.

Dang Jason. Those are beauties! Really like those sheaths too.  I hope the owner doesn't set one of those knives down on the ground after using it. He may not see it again!!   LOL
I reckon so

Those knifes look good, but the sheaths look extra nice!

Thanks guys. I think I try too hard sometimes. As John can vouch for, my working on these knives has gotten me a bit backed up. Now I'm slowly getting caught up on the few I need to finish. Thankfully everyone has been very understanding with all that's been going on lately. Skippy

2 edges. These are from older circular blades from my dad and grandfathers "collection" thankfully for me they are pack rats and have stuff from years ago. So far so good with the edges. I've only done minimal brassrod testing and cut up a few boxes. Hopefully my knives will be used to cut up a few trophys this year then we'll have some true field testing. Skippy
