camp knife and partner
« on: December 22, 2008, 07:44:00 PM »
a friend of mine asked if i thought i could make a  medium duty camp knife in a modified kukri
style  and a small skinner so i built these as a
package
 
 
 
scales are tiger maple that i salvaged from  my father inlaws  fire wood supply
large knife is 11.5 o.a.l 5.5 handle
smaller one is7.5 o.a.l 4 .0 handle
blades are saw mill blades
the larger knife chopped thru a pine 2x4 and a rough sawn oak 2x4 and would almost shave after that  much abuse
sheath is a cross draw
thanks
kevin

Those knives fit great in that sheath(I got to try it on). Kevin was right about how sharp that big blade still is. Now if he would just post the pictures of the other knife he helped me with  :bigsmyl:
