Another huntin'-type knife...
« on: January 29, 2014, 06:51:00 PM »
Now I can focus on Little Rock a bit more.
Last one for clients.
But about the 9th or 10th one of these I've done. Guys surely do like the combination.
On this one I did something I haven't done since I moved to Minnesota, which is to mirror polish the spine and choil prior to hot-bluing.
That really makes the blade dance in the light.   :D

 

 


 


 
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

That spalted wood handle against the polished blue choil is gorgeous. Really nice detail.
