Here's another one for your viewing pleasure. Yes..... it's D-2 and Sambar. But at least I changed it up a bit with the Bollox Shield.

You make me sick! Sick and tired of not having one of your knives, that is!:D

Beautiful work. And, I am a recent convert to D-2, so I know what a great blade that is, without ever touching it.
 
Beautiful knife. It looks as if the blade on this one doesn't have as much drop as previous incarnations.
 
Nice blade & stag Brent :thumbup: It looks great closed,too,I like that sunk joint

Actually, I made the bolster a bit wider/bigger to cover the tang. It is almost sunk joint. (Thanks Vince!) The recurve and drop is still there. I really like the way it turned out. It has more of a Remington bullet feel.
 
That bolster and sunk joint do go well together,nice large knife without being clumsy, good job!
 
You can send that to me for a field test. You'll never see it again though. A work of art.
 
Bee-U-T-Full!!! BTW, why is that called a Bollox shield? It looks like a chess piece to me.

I guess my spelling is wrong. It should be Bollix or Bollocks.

According to thefreedictionary.com

"Bollocks [ˈbɒləks], Ballocks US, Bollix [ˈbɒlɪks] Slang
pl n
1. (Life Sciences & Allied Applications / Anatomy)
another word for testicles
2. nonsense; rubbish
interj
1. an exclamation of annoyance, disbelief, etc
the (dog's) bollocks"​

My assumption is that the shield is shaped somewhat like a scrotum. Maybe someone with more knowledge than I can give a better explanation.
 
That is a wonderful knife.... I love single blade Slip's

Anyone would be proud to own it ! :)

That is gorgeous:eek: Great work:thumbup:

I now have to go wipe the drool of my keyboard.:p
 
Thats a nice one. Great stag, great size and great steel... :thumbup:

I have to say though, I would have never guessed that the shield resembled a scrotum :eek:
I liked the shield until I found that out :D
 
Really great work Brent, I love it. Looking forward to seeing more, especially up close and personal.:)
