One to keep
« on: May 30, 2008, 12:06:00 AM »
My daughter gave me some mammoth tooth, I finally got around to using it.  I vow to bloody it up this year.
I ground the blade from a damascus billet, and it is 4" long. The bolsters are pinned and dovetailed.
Sheath came out nice too.
Dan

Beautiful knife Dan. I'd really like to see one like that in person. I bet these pictures don't do it justice.
