Here is the latest knife I finished up. This one is almost 9" overall, Chad Nichols carbon ladder pattern damascus, Wooly mammoth ivory bolsters, Wooly mammoth tooth handle, Brass liners & spacers, wandering vine file work, and finally a elephant skin inlaid sheath. Those are wooly mammoth tooth and ivory beads on the little dangler thing on the sheath that I also maid. That was a request of the customer. I hope you like the pics! Please let me know what ya think good or bad! Thanks, Shane

That is some fine looking work,the scales really work with the damascus,,plus the leather work is very nice---Regards Butch
 
Wonderful package, from tip of the blade to the end of the handle plus the sheath. Top Shelf stuff. Jim
 
The handles are very beautiful. If you don't mind my asking whom did you get the mammoth from? I bought some from Rick Field some 10 years ago at one of the NY Knife Shows. Heard his brother(?) Don took over, but I haven't seen anything in the last few years.
 
very very cool, I like how you used 3 different mosaic pins that all had a resemblence to each other.
 
Thanks Everyone!
The front 2 mosaic pins are actually the same but the fromt one just has a little buffing compound on it. The rear pin is a moaic lanyard tube. Thanks for the great comments.
