Hello Blade Forum members. I have not posted any knives here lately but have finally made some time to do so. I have started to expermint with dying and jigging my own bone and have been having a lot of fun doing it, but before I continue I want to thank Ken coats for having helped me with the process. I think it is a lot more extra work but I belive it can be worth the extra effort. What I really like is that the bone scale can be custom made to fit a particular knife and get the jigging all the way up to the bolster, which is sometime a high wire act to accomplish with factory bone. Also I belive it adds some more to the custom made/ hand made element. The knife here is a Tony Bose Back Pocket pattern with a drop point blade. All coments are welcomed.

I'm glad you found time to share some pics with us..

Thats a fantastic knife all the way around.
 
Excellent stuff, keep up the good work. Love the jigged bone, looks as though you have gotten the hang of it.
 
That's is a great looking knife! I like how the holes on the jigged bone are all spaced out evenly too. It's like a bee hive.
