Rookie knives are done pics
« on: March 12, 2012, 08:58:00 PM »
Here are a few pics of my finished projects with Dave Ricke. I think I might have the bug! The sheaths were fun to do also.

Dave donated this knife to my archery club for a fundraiser & we made a sheath for it.

That drop point with the mosaic pins is my absolute favorite knife shape. works well edge down, edge up, or anywhere in-between. Really nice contours on the handle as well.
