What makers out there are doing a nice high carbon hunting knife with curly maple handle and wire inlay? I' d love to chat about technique and wouldn't mind buying one if the price was right. I can't afford an Aubrey Barnes or Bill Moran at this point.

Any tutorials on this?
Any knifemaker websites?

Thanks,

PJG
 
Bill Moran's video is good.He gives a class at the Moran Hammer-in in October,at Frederick ,Md.I t is rewarding to do,and not as hard as it looks.
 
I know Rene Roy does some great silver wire inlay work and is willing to pass the how-to's along. he should be back in commision in a week or so.
 
Talk to Bowie AKA Ron Claiborne, he is an expert at wire inaly and gave a fantastic class on how to do it at his hammer-in this year! I am going to try my hand at it! :D
 
I do some wire inlay, what do you have in mind? Here's a couple piece that I did. Let me know if I can be of any help.
