Damascus and stag

[DevinT]

CTS-XHP core, stainless damascus clad blade, rocky mountain elk handles, paper micarta, mortise tang construction, I don't make many knives and hope you like this one.

Nice work, Hoss. As for other knives, have you cut back on your kitchen knife making?

 

[DevinT]

Thanks, had a rough spell. Doing better now and making a few knives. Most of my business is damascus steel.

Great looking knife!! That elk belongs there! :thumbup:

That is really a nice knife, Hoss. Who made the damascus?

 

[jdm61]

No, no, Mr, Moderator. The proper gun show question is 'where did you buy the blade?"

That is really a nice knife, Hoss. Who made the damascus?

 

[Shaw Blades]

Nice. Wish it were mine.

 

[Alan Davis Knives]

Very nice, I like the idea of the XHP core.

That's a clean machine, Devin!
Do you have a shot of the handle from the side? Would be cool to look at your handle construction, seems like the bolsters are really scales that the stag is fit into. That's a neat way to build them!

 

[DevinT]

I sent the knife off already. You're right, scales are machined and stag inserted, no tang is exposed. Mortised tang. Thanks everone for the kind words.
