A look back
« on: March 14, 2014, 08:30:00 AM »
One of my customers sent me this snap shot of a knife that I made for him a few years ago. It' my Boone's Lick Bowie in Ironwood and Bronze. I thought the sheath was very nice that he had Paul Long make. It has Beaver tail inlay. I have to start using more of that.

Very slick! And I agree on the beaver tail. I've had that thought many times.
Pretty easy to come by, too.
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.

Beauty. I need to try out some bronze for fittings, I really like the look of it.

That case is just the kind of perfection that your knives deserve.
Exquisite and Beautiful!

Thanks.

I don't think this is the actual knife but it is this model (Boone's Lick).
