First Knife Kit.....Thanks Bodork
« on: March 08, 2009, 06:55:00 PM »
I have seen on here that some of you can make a knife over the weekend. My admiration to you is overwelming. This took me some time and I needed some "hand holding" to which Bodork came to my aid many times. Thank you Mike

nice job

Looks Good!What did you make the handle from?
Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.

Awesome job Rick! The knife looks real nice!  I'd like to say I did alot to help, but really I just supplied encouragement. You supplied the talent and it looks like you have plenty. Can't wait to see your next one. Mike
