walnut burl knife
« on: April 24, 2012, 10:25:00 PM »
Here's a knife I just finished with clario walnut burl scales. It's 1080 carbon with a cross filed into the spine. Home made mosaic pins and brass liners. The blade is just over 3" and the overall length is 6-1/2". Thanks for having a look, hope you enjoy it! Mike

In my opinion that is just about the perfect all around size and style hunting knife!  A real beauty!  Thanks for sharing.

X2. That, to me is just a perfect carrying knife. If I need to fell trees, that's what a chain saw is for.

Great job. Love the balance and lines. Great guard shape and the brass liners and dark red spacer are nice touches.
