Lignum Vitae Hunter
« on: April 03, 2020, 11:03:03 AM »
Attached are a few pics of a forged W2 hunter.  I used bearing bronze for the guard and Lignum Vitae for the handle material.  I made this in a takedown style, but I glued it up and glued in a matching plug on the rear end to hide the fitting.  Here are some pics along the way.  Thanks

Very nice Brad, I bet that handle is heavy.

It’s a very dense wood and super oily too
