Two new ones from me!
« on: December 17, 2008, 09:37:00 AM »
One for me , one for a customer.
Both are the same spec, only the handle materials are different.

OAL - 8-1/4"

Blade - 4" (tip to handle)

Handle - 4-1/4"

Blade - 1/8" 01 High scandi grind with tiny-weeny micro bevel on the Olive only. Micarta is zero ground

Handle - Olivewood with 6mm & 4mm mosaic pins & 8mm lanyard tube/Green canvas micarta with brick red & white liners, 6mm & 4mm Mosaics & 8mm Lanyard tube.

Sheath - 7oz veg tan, low hanging belt loops dyed Mid-tan & cordovan. Hand sewn with artificial sinew.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, in case you're interested, I'm keeping the Micarta model. I've never worked with it before (well, not properly) & I wanted a good, allround user.

Rob,
Those are nice, bud.

By the way, what are those round brown things in the ground cover next to the knives? Doggie diamonds????

Doggie Diamonds! Good one!.
Sweet knives, Rob. I love that Olive.
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.
