CPK Boot Daggers

Freaking awesome. Great job!

Scales for the above are ironwood and chittum burl, split twice to be book matched and mirrored along the centerline. The rib down the middle is micarta (edge cut, of course) and suppised to invoke the central rib in Nathan's original integral daggers.

I got the ironwood specifically because of the strong diagonal bias in the rays in the grain to highlight the mirror image effect.

The chittum came from two pieces that separately were too small for knife handles. But I thought they may work for this idea, too. I think the chevron pattern is very cool.
