Amboyna Hunter
« on: June 01, 2014, 10:57:00 PM »
An Amboyna hunter I'll have in Atlanta.
Blade frged from 1 1/2" round W2, stainless take-down fittings and stabilized Amboyna burl:

 


 
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.

Great knife Karl. I have always really liked Amboyna burl and that looks like a heck of a piece!

Everything about your knives look perfect Karl. Dimensions, fit and finish always perfect.

Based on my experience with amboyna and what little I can tell about the figure in the pictures, I'm thinking they probably don't do this knife justice.  Looks awesome all the way around, as usual.
