Now that is a fine piece of work right there.
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

Dana that sure is a looker. Say your just up the road from me we should get together some time and hammer some. I am fixing up a little giant. That is a great knife man.

The proportions on this knife are very nice. It's a combination many seemingly small things that are eye catching and apealing. The details are what makes all the difference. This is a good lesson. The knife is not particularly embellished, but has to stand on basic knife building principles. It does.

If I keep visiting this Hunting Knives and Crafters site I might get the fever. I might have to jump in with both feet and see how the water is. I might find myself looking for an old brake drum and some black iron fittings. Any how some sweet knives that's for sure.  :bigsmyl:    :notworthy:
