camel bone! Where did you get that?

No surprise coming from me, but i really like that blade profile. What's the overall and blade length?

Two suggestions on the sheath- take a brass or bone rod and burnish the edges really well, and if you haven't, use nuetral shoe polish to buff out the smooth sides of the leather.

1. a camel (LOL).......................pop's supply, bought it at the ohio classic show this year.
2. yeah after words i took a rod and rounded them edges a bit, then hit with the buffer.

thank you ,

but looks ain't every thing, this knife was actually a knife i posted in another topic earlier in the year, but never completed "for sale" because ther was just something about it that didn't feel right. so finally i decided to finish'er up, and took a bit off the point,adjusted the clip, reground,and re heat treated. and it's a real cutter still, the origional knife was posted in this thread,
