Bird and Small Game Knife
« on: March 09, 2011, 04:40:00 PM »
Up for your review is a bird knife I'm donating to my dog club (German Shorthaired Pointer Club of Idaho) to be auctioned-off as a fund raiser.   3 1/2" D2 blade has a hardness of Rockwell 59C, and I think the blade shape is well suited for use on birds and small game. I assembled the handle using stabilized spalted honey locust/.010" white liner/red dyed stabilized mango to get the effect that I was looking for.

Lovely shape!  Very handsome package from tip to tang.  Thanks for sharing.  :)

That is outstanding!  Beautiful work.    :clapper:  

Birds, yes, but I prefer a knife about that size for field dressing 200 lb whitetail.
