Knife For Grandma
« on: July 15, 2016, 08:55:00 AM »
Last fall my grandpa passed away and I wanted to do something special for grandma. I made this kitchen type paring knife for her from one of grandpas old files. The scales and stand are spalted tamarind and the antler was also from a small buck he shot (he never was a trophy hunter, just a meat hunter). Thanks for taking a peak.

That is a great gift.

I just finished a couple capers that look just like that.

Pretty cool
