St. Jude Auction Knife (knives) Finished.
« on: July 26, 2016, 09:13:00 PM »
Hello,

I got the St. Jude auction knife done. But one knife turned into two. Dennis's awesome donation didn't go overlooked by me. I kept trying to convince him into a real fancy big knife and he kept trying to convince me he just wanted a simple small one to match the Bocote on one of his bows.

He also wanted another knife built like his auction knife but smaller and offered to buy it full price. I told him since he is saving me a lot of potential work on his humble small knife I'd do the smaller knife for just cost of materials then I realized the price of both these knives would be pretty close to what he donated to St. Jude to own them so I just donated both.

Thanks Dennis, You are a great guy for such an awesome bid and I'm very proud I had the honor to build you these, Sir.

The big on is a TCK #1 and the little one is a TCK #4. Both in tooled leather sheaths.

The sheaths were made from different leather so the natural color is a bit different between the two but all in all a neat little set.

I've adopted too many bows that needed a good home.

As I told Todd I am not a fancy guy. I'm not a collector. These knives will be put to use this fall. They look great.
Thank you Todd.

Job well done Todd. Dennis should be very happy but the kids of St. Jude are the real winners. Congrats to all who participated in this annual event.   :thumbsup:
