Finished one at last.
« on: March 28, 2011, 11:26:00 PM »
Just finishing this one. I wanted a horseman's blade that could split kindling for a fire but still peel a elk hide. The sheath is a simple high carry that clears my cantle on the saddle.

The scales are english walnut and I used O1 toolsteel and tryed for a even hollowgrind on a 8" benchgrinder.

That whole package is beautiful!  Excellent job all the way around. I particularly like the blade shape and the finish work on the leather.    :thumbsup:

Robin, very nice work!  Great details, solid package in every way!  What's not to like.

Big game hounds!  Bear, big cats.....Bigfoot?  Sounds very interesting!
