Father's Day Knife for My Dad
« on: June 11, 2007, 10:14:00 PM »
Well I am really close to being done with this so I thought I would post some pics.  I decided back in April when I seen Jeff (HO'NEHE JEFF) post pics of the Ulu Knives he made that that is what I wanted to get my dad for fathers day.  My dad has always liked the Ulu knives and has a few that are pretty cheaply made and falling apart.  I asked Jeff if he would be interested in making me one and he told me he didnt have the time.  But he told me he would send me a blade if I wanted to make the handle for it.  So when the blade came in the mail I contacted Shell right away and asked her if she would make me a sheath.  And being the awesome person she is she made it for me at no charge.  I decided to make the handle out of Zeabra wood to match my dad's favorite longbow.  Well here it is.  I hope it is something that my dad will carry with him in the woods for many years to come.  Let me know what you guys think.  I would like to thank again for thier generosity Jeff, Frank, and Shell for helping me with the project.
