did you make the blades yourself? Those are awsome.

I do pressure flake obsidian although these blades were done by other people.I kinda laid off flaking for a while, but these knives have inspired me to get back into it. The pictures do not do these knives justice.

Look good to me!

The red blade is glass. The blade is 5 and 1/2 inches long and 2 inches wide. The handle is made from cholla catus with black walnut endcap.

Very cool.I like the way the antler on the display is centered like that with the blade up.
Feathers are a great touch also. Really nice.
Definitely sculpture. Thanks!

do you guys use those knifes or ar the for display?

horatio1226 · « **Reply #18 on:** February 22, 2008, 06:29:00 AM »

I don't use mine. They are sharp enough to use but won't hold an edge like a modern knife.

I traded one of my knives to Woody (Knife River). Seems as though he got the shot end of the deal...Doc
