A Long Time Coming. First and Sentimental Fighter.
« on: May 25, 2016, 05:34:00 PM »
Back in 2007, when I was single and bill-less, I was able to travel to Africa to hunt. It wasn't an archery hunt but the subject of this thread is a knife I finally built out of critter parts I harvested.

Critique is ALWAYS welcome.

It is a USA made rasp fighter with self harvested impala horn and the sheath is lined with my cape buffalo leather. It has Walrus tusk and satin 440c Stainless furniture.

   

   

Still working on my photoshop images..

   

   

           

   

   

   

Thanks for looking,

Todd

Very cool how you could put all the those materials together to make a functional, one of a kind,  tool. Well done and very nice!
