Sheep Horn Hunter
« on: June 03, 2012, 07:41:00 PM »
I just finished this hunter. I'm not sure if I can get it photographed before Blade Show, so I took a few shots with my cell phone before it sells and I dont have any photo records. The blade is 3 3/8. A solid hunting knife, if I do say so.

Pretty slick, Lin.
Got a name for the Damascus pattern?
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.

My kind of knife!  The damascus is very apealing to me and I like the hammer marks on the pins. The sheep horn always adds a touch of class.

I hope you're still around and forging in about 18 years when I'll be able to afford one of these.  (Three boys = big food bill)    :D

Another beauty, Lin.   :thumbsup:

Amazing, I love hunters, sheep horn and damascus steel. That's pretty much my dream knife.  One day....maybe....
