Elk Antler "Hunters Pal" Knife
« on: December 20, 2016, 11:41:00 AM »
I really like the blade design of the Puma "Hunters Pal" knife so I figured I would make one similar to it, but make the handle more to my liking.

Blade steel is 1084, the handle is elk antler and the guard is scrap steel I had left over. The blade length is 4 1/4" and the knife is 8" overall. I have a couple doe tags left so with any luck, I will be able to put it to use before deer season is over.

That is a very nicely done knife!

Very nice......
