A Twofer.
« on: August 18, 2008, 02:35:00 PM »
Got these two done & finished today.

The design brief was for a matching pair of hunting/camping knives, one large & one small, suitable for pretty much everything that didn't include chopping wood. They had to be as fitted to a single sheath for ease of carry & had to look 'sexy' yet rustic, with wood to match the customer's hunting bow.

This is my interpretation of that brief.....

I hope my customer (he knows who he is  ;)  ) won't mind me showing off on his behalf  :D
