Fancy Hog Knife
« on: February 09, 2010, 06:12:00 AM »
I just got finished with this one and I liked the way it feels in the hand. It has a slight recurve to the cutting edge, but not enough to make sharpening difficult. 9 3/4 inch blade of clay quenched W2, Stainless fittings, and Ironwood. Lin

Wow! that is nice
What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.

Lin it's fanatastic. I love how the back edge of your gaurd flips up just a hair. Those kinds of details in your knives are very humbling...

Now we're talkin'!!
Where's the bacon?
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.
