More Sheephorn and Damascus

Figured I better have one sheephorn knife for Arkansas. 4 3/4" Damascus blade, Damascus guard/spacers and Montana Bighorn.

Great looking knife all around, like the shape of the handle.

Wow. That is one of my favorites of yours. Is it a frame handle or two pieces of horn mortised around a hidden tang?

Thanks guys, really appreciate the feedback.

It's kind of a frame Jeremy, got a piece of fluted black G10 tween the two sheep scales although I did have to mortise the scales a little.

I have not seen anyone do sheep horn handles as well as you Doug.  I have made a few and I can not get them close to looking this good.
