Check out what Doug Campbell made me
« on: March 07, 2007, 08:57:00 AM »
So, I asked Doug to make me some knives a few months ago.  I really wanted his input on what he thought about different options.  We spoke a few times and settled on a Damascus blades and Sheep Horn handles.  I haven’t received them yet but he sent an email with these photos to make sure I approved, LOL approve???  :knothead:  R U KIDDING, I'm astounded he is really an amazing talent.  :bigsmyl:    :thumbsup:    :clapper:
 

 

p.s. Just so you know he said he took the photos in low light a little late, that may be true, but IMHO even in the dark these babies would shine!

I'm almost not surprised any more when I see the pictures in any post about Doug's knives. It's like seeing a thread about "look at my new Blacktail Take-down". You know when you open it up the picture, it's going to be stunning craftsmanship.    

I really like the bottom knife. It's similar in shape/design to our Michigan Bow Hunters Association 60th anniversary knife and it feels really good in my hand.

Enjoy your new tools.   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Vance and Killdeer, Don't go getting no crazy ideas or nothing.  A nice invite out to Wyoming to hunt those speed goats might get you something though.   ;)  These are from my darling wife for my 37th birthday. She's a real keeper, can't quite figure out why she hangs on to me though  :confused:
