Ace of Hearts
« on: November 06, 2011, 10:20:00 PM »
This is a frontier style belt knife I just finished up. It is the first time doing a spanish notch for me, and I think it came alright.
The handle is some very curly Bastogne Walnut, and the pins are copper. Oal is 8.25" of L6.  I really enjoy doing this style of knife, and plan on more in the future.
Let me know what you think.  (sorry for the crappy pics, I desperately need a new camera)
