Carpathian Elm Hunter
« on: November 09, 2008, 11:02:00 AM »
Hi Guys,  Haven't posted any photos in a while,  been up to my elbows remodeling a room/sunporch on the house.  This hunter was traded for a website,  pretty good deal for me since I couldn't build a website if my life depended on it!
About a 4.25" O1 blade and ss guard with Stabilized Carpathian Elm Handle. A bit of texturing on the handle.  Hope you like it.

Very Nice! I really like the handle design and the stippling sets it off nicely.   :thumbsup:

Thanks guys!  The website is finished just waiting till we can get together and pick out colors and a few other details.  The website should be singleyknives.com.  I bought it a year ago I think!  
  Lin,  the elm is somewhat soft reminded me of grinding maple, maybe just a bit harder than maple but not much.  
Thanks again!

Brad that is a great knife, the elm has a unique color, what tool did you use to do the stippling with?
I want to use that technique on some maple.
