A little different hunter
« on: June 23, 2014, 01:25:00 PM »
Here's one I just finished. A little different handle. Blade is 4 1/2" and the knife is 9 !/2" overall. The handle wood is spalted hackberry.

Its a beauty.. Being a full tang fan, I sure appreciate your style.

Thanks guys. I've been doing full tangs for a while now, but I think I'm going to get back to some hidden tangs soon.
