Just built this for Jim Gainey, "Black Creek" Bows. Forged 1095 blade, 4-1/4" long x 1-3/8" wide x 3/16" at thick at ricasso. Handle is Desert Ironwood, stainless guard. Differentially heat treated using clay, 400 grit belt finish, light etch to show hamon.

I dont make as many hunters as Bowies/Fighters/Choppers, but I think im going to do more of them in the future.

Any how, just wanted to post a few pics, nothing special, thanks!

That's a fine looking hunter. I'd be happy to carry and use that.
 
Matt Thats sweet crisp and clean. I find that at the most shows little hunters and skinners are a good thing to have on the table.
 
thanks all, hopefully it will get a work out this weekend, Jim is on a hunting trip at a pretty good camp. So im hoping that I get some good feedback next week!
 
well thanks all, im definitely going to make more, they are a nice break from the big ones!
