For you consideration
« on: January 24, 2010, 10:26:00 PM »
Here's one that I'll be taking around to a few Knifesmiths for a critique. I'm pretty tickled with it so hope they will be too...

10" of 1084, 416 stainless hardware and walrus oosik.
   
   
   

Thanks for looking.

She's a beauty, Doug!
Poor walrus.

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.
