W2 Hunter With Stag
« on: December 21, 2013, 12:59:00 AM »
I have, unfortunately, let a few knives get away without posting images here. So I thought I should share the latest one. This is the first one with stag I have done. I had a friend, David Seward, make the sheath. This one is being delivered to the customer in the morning.
 

Comments and critiques always welcomed.

I love it... the ONLY thing I would do differently is make the guard a tad bit shorter.

That is one fine hunter!

Very Nice Chris, did you stain the stag yourself, if so what did you use.
