Jeff, I saw that knife "Over Yonder" and like it a bunch!  I like the petina on the antler!  Nice work!

Hey Jeff,

Knife looks great.  The guys are right.  Don't know what Damascus you used, but the finish you put on that bone fits it perfectly.  

Way to go.  Can't wait to see it posted as finished if that's not.  Very cool piece!
chiger,

I generally eat whatever I can get catched up!
