One for the bug-out bag.................
« on: November 12, 2010, 11:05:00 AM »
.........or back pack, or glove compartment, or wherever.
Not yet done, but I was just amazed at the figure in the stabilized Bubinga and was compelled to share it.
Bubinga does happen to be near the top of my favorite handle materials.
I recently used this handle profile which I "borrowed" from Lin on one of my large choppers and wanted to see how it would coincide on a smaller knife. This is so comfortable it must be held to appreciate. I'm am truly pleased.
Mirror polished and rounded spine, which I will capture when I do my final photos, and 416 stainless guard.
Ready for TEOTWAWKI.
