Geez....I love that Howser. The bone looks almost exactly the same as what I have on the Howser dog leg jack you sold me.

It is ! Not the same set of course.Same stash,it came from,though.This one & yours were the last 2 matching like this color wise.
Johnhas a good connection for some really unique older bone if anyone is thinking of comissioning a knife I highly reccomend this 3-3/4" size modified warncliffe.A great carry knife

Just got this in from Rick, built to a pattern of Tony Bose. Single blade, 154cm steel, these handles are Utica Bone over 100 years old. It is near perfect as can be. Great snap, perfect pull, completely flush in all the positions, open, 1/2 stop and closed. This knife walks and talks. Needless to say, I love it, sorry for the bad photos, I am so excited, I am shaking.
