After being at my Mecca of knife forging last week...Doug Campbell's work shop

I decided to try to change some caper designs. With hunting season rapidly approaching, I'm still looking for that Holy Grail of the perfect knife shape. Alas no such luck but I guess I'll still finsh these three. I'll keep pounding hot steel in my search "[dntthnk]"

I like the 3rd from the top

or maybe the blade on the second one down with the handle on the third one down.

Hmm keep searching

pant pant pant...

May you never find it. The joy is in the hunt, not the capture of the ne plus ultra of whatever you seek!

Plus we all find joy in your cast-off also-rans.
Killdeer :D

I'd happily test one of those capers for ya, they would clean lots of squirrels!

Doc, we really need to work something out!

As a guy who's does his share of skinning,I personally like the first two the best....

all of them are great though

I like 2 and 4 myself, I do not do a bunch of skinning, only the 5 or 6 deer I shoot each year.

Very Nice work!!! Shawn

Hey Doc, while you were at the forge the Sawx dropped 3 to the Yanks :mad:

I'd pick the bottom for skinning and the top for butchering.....

Now you're talkin my language Doc. The Tribe is starting to play really good ball at the right time. Up 4 on the Motor City Kittys!

Now, where did you say all the Osage was, in Bath township? :D

Mike Bolin · « **Reply #14 on:** August 31, 2007, 07:25:00 PM »

Second one from the top and the bottom one would be my picks. Awesome as always! Mike

Doc,

Keep looking for that: "Holy Grail of the perfect knife shape" as I plan on winning it for bagging the biggest bear on "Quebec Quest II!"

The New England Patriots are going all the way anyway!!! I predict a "double header" of championships!!!

geno · « **Reply #18 on:** August 31, 2007, 07:37:00 PM »

If you are talking caping as in detailed work I like #3. Skining I like 1 or 2..
