Sheephorn and Damascus
« on: November 30, 2011, 12:22:00 PM »
Here is another hunter I finished lately. This one has the same basic size specs as the other one, just different metals. The hammered pins are the ones I described in the "shade tree" thread.

I'd love to see somebody elbow deep in a big elk with that thing!
That's fantastic.

Another great knife. I do love the bronze and sheep horn together. I am saving some money for some Bronze now. I have one that is about ready for heat treat just begging for Bronze and African Blackwood.

Great job Lin, its bound to go to a very appreciative new home.

Oh, my!    :eek:   Gracious, that's flat out gorgeous.  The lines on that piece are perfect.  Those hammered pins really go nicely with the texture of the sheep horn.       :clapper:
