Horsewright Knives and Leather

Dave, Reference the "110"sheath, I note the tang says "Japan" so is there a maker stamp on the other side of the tang? Amazing work done with all those bags! John

Been a while since I've had a chance to post here. I got those knives above all shipped out and they are at heat treat currently. I started a new small batch of 6 knives and finished them a couple of days ago. These have been posted on the website.

Here's a few pics:

A Cowboy with the very last of the red woolcarta that was made.No mad of this handle material.

A Coyote. As I was making this batch I started calling this knife The African knife. It has African Blackwood for a spacer and African Bubinga as the handle. I thought it came out pretty striking. Whadya think? Funny thing was there was no intent it just kind came out that way:

Rick contacted me and asked if I could make a sheath for his 110. I told him I had a lil modification I wanted to make for better retention in this style of sheath, it's made by many makers but I always worried about 110s retention. So he agreed for me to give it a try on his order and bam! It just snaps into place with an audible clunk.

Thank you sir! It was great talking to ya. Should ship out tomorrow I think. We don't make it into town every day. Funny deal, I didn't post pics of it in the first post this morning cause I hadn't moved them over to Imgur yet.

Great group of knives, Dave. That Coyote is a looker. I like the grain in the oak Cowboy quite a bit too. Think you’ll try to find a micarta maker for more ____carta in the future?

I have an old blaze orange wool coat from Bemidji Woolen Mills (great wool products made in northern Minnesota) that I think would make neat knife handles for hunters and those that want a hi-vis knife.

Thank you! I've thought about it. At the time that was made the guy was also making me some Wranglercarta from. my old jeans. Was popular in our cowboy world. He's since passed away and we don't have stacks of silk or wool leftovers anymore.

Thanks for posting the pix, Dave. I wanted to save some to the laptop, but by the time I got back from town they were removed from the site.

(I emailed before coming back on here, so you can disregard when received.)

:cool::thumbsup: 🍺

Yeah John it says Tasco. It came with a rifle scope I bought, a Tasco World Class 3x9 that I got back in the 80s. Pretty darn good scope too. I'd noticed reading all the gun rags back then, that the writers were using these World Class Scopes on their own personal rifles. Not so much the fancier ones they were testing in the mags. It has worked out very well for me. Its on my Win M70 Featherweight in 7x57mm

Thanks. It's a nice one. Nichole was tempted to keep it and not put it on the website.

Very cool. You've got quite a collection of accoutrements if I remember correctly. All done in the water buff overlay.

LOL you and me both! I immediately checked if it was still on the web site and it was (which made closing the tab harder).

Sorry for the temptation!

Dave, do you ever post knives with pocket sheaths which can be clipped to the front pocket or AIWB if desired? I carry most of my small fixed blades as neck knives, AIWB or in pocket. Neck mostly because I'm a retired so and so and wear sweats a lot. LOL.
