Snowbound knives
« on: April 09, 2015, 05:23:00 PM »
Been a long winter, but was able to get to working on some knives between shoveling out from the snow storms and a hog hunting trip to Florida. Here's a couple of knives I finished. Both are CPM154 steel with blackline spalted maple handles and 4" blades. Bottom knife has brass and stainless steel spacers.

I agree - all are really nice.
And I'm a big fan of your handle choices.
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.
