Merry Christmas!

I completed an order today for a fellow forum member. He has a small Bird & Trout model in Bocote with the same style of sheath that he purchased from me a while back, and he wanted a larger 'matching outfit' to pair with it for heavier tasks in the field.

Thanks in advance for any comments and for viewing my work!

Specifications:

- 3/16" thick 1080 with hand-rubbed satin finish
- Full-height flat grind
- ~4.5" blade and ~9 3/8" OAL
- Natural Bocote handle scales with stainless pins and thong tube
- Black hand sewn, tooled, and wet molded Wickett & Craig cowhide pouch sheath

Thats a beauty. I've come across so many makers here on BF that I may have never heard of otherwise And now I will be adding you to my list of makers to check up on each time I have a little "me" money. I really like the sating finish, it came out perfect. So whats the price for this one?
 
Paul, This is a great knife! I just pulled it out of the sheath and the handle fits my hand like you measured me for it. The sheath is just right with an ideal amount of drop. Nice Job, Sir!!!

It's great looking up close, the photo's just don't show how perfect it is. It is going hunting next fall as one of my all time favorites. I'll be taking the bird and trout it matches out for pheasant tomorrow.

Thanks again for making this for me!

Thanks Larry, I appreciate your nice comments! My photos have improved dramatically, but I still am unable to capture all of the details that I want to in them and they pale in comparison to the work of the fine pros here. I'd like to get a quality camera at some point soon to see if I can improve them further.


I appreciate all the comments, and hope everyone has a Happy New Year!
