Grey Maple Burl Hunting Claw

J. Neilson · Nov 5, 2003

This Claw has a 6", multi-edge quenched blade of forged 5160 spring steel with a hand-rubbed finish; 11 1/4" total length. The guard is tri-layered nickle-silver with black spacers in between. The handle is maple burl, dyed/stabilized grey, giving the handle an angry storm cloud look. The handle also has a nickle-silver pin. The sheath is cow hide with an eel skin inlay, by Tess. This knife is also the first of two with my new logo on it.

I just got back from the Koval show in Ohio. I bought a J. Neilson Crook Back. J. and Tess's table was the real eye-popper of the show, in my opinion. After scanning the whole show, theirs was the only table I went back to.

Thanks for the compliment Nick. It was good meeting you. We had a great time at the show and saw alot of great folks, both new faces and old.
