1095/Stag Hunter

[Tad Lynch]

I've been trying, in my spare time, to get some knives together for the Little Rock show. Here's one that's almost done. 5" blade, 4.5" handle, SS guard. The buttcap is Ironwood, that's attached with a tenon in the stag w/ tubing through the tenon.

Thanks for looking,

Tad

That's a really nice hunter Tad - I like the ironwood cap. Looking forward to seeing these in person. Any big pieces planned for the show?

Really nice hunter.
really distinct hamon activity, very good execution and stag.

The ironwood buttcap is very nice touch.

Great looking hunter. Love the way that stag shines.

 

[Tad Lynch]

Thanks, guys.

Roger, I think I'll have a big chopper and a light chopper, with a couple of traditional bowies. I hope to see you there.

that's a cool knife Tad.
Pretty neat idea the way you attached the handle. Does the tube go through the tang?

looks fantastic!

Hey, Lorien. The tang stops just before the wood tenon. I did think about that--after I prepped the hole and cut off the tang.

That's a pretty cool way to attach the cap.

Doh!
It wouldn't make a difference if you did, I wouldn't think. Dang tricky to do though I bet. That would be an impressive feat of precision.

I've lost this one. Outstandig job Tad. For sure I'll ask you some big piece in stag in the future.
