Osage recurve skinner
« on: August 12, 2011, 12:19:00 AM »
Here is one that has been on my bench awhile and I finally got around to finishing it, now it just needs a sheath. I love using Osage on handles it is super durable and finishes glassy smooth!
Let me know what you think.
Oal is 8.5"
Blade is 4"

Ben, If you ever need a field tester, just let me know. LOL. Probly won't see much action on game but that one right there looks like it would do fine on making big sticks into little sticks. What a beauty. Mike

Very nice lines. Hard to beat Osage for handle material, I particularly like it as it darkens with age.

Thanks a bunch guys, I really like to combine copper and osage, I think they compliment each other nicely!
