First antler handle
« on: March 31, 2010, 10:49:00 PM »
This one is forged from 1080 bar stock, 1 1/4 wide 5" blade oal is 10 1/2, brass finger guard and my first butt cap with black spacers.
There are a few thing i will change on the next one, but i think it turned out ok. let me now that you think

Bob, i did not stain the handle, it is all natural with a little polish. the end of the trail was poured in a mold, made in okla. i've had it for about 15 yr.
thanks
for the kind words

Great looking knife, and knowing your knives I bet she is sharp enough to cut your eyes out to look at her in person.......  Great job!!!!   :)
What would you attempt to do, if you knew you could not fail?
