This one got lost on my bench... Had it cut up for months and just now got around to finishing it up!

55 liner lock in Osage with a houndstooth shield to match the pattern

Really great work, J.!

That Osage rules!

Is it hell to work with though?

Yes... Not fun!

 

[Half/Stop]

Really love the Osage! Made a great knife beautiful and unique!

 

[Will Power]

Right, the 55 is a very likeable knife, good feel in hand and a decent sized Wharncliffe.

They should do another run, Barehead this time

On to the next! Another project I've been putting off for a long time. O1 Bullnose in red stag.

Just got the stag lopped off the rounds ..

And then dyed with potassium permanganate

 

[Jfowl31]

Forgot how much fun bullnoses are to work with! This one went very smoothly and everything fell together with no hitches! Really pleased with it!

Outstanding, Jordan. I'm not sure that I've seen any finer stag job than this. What a cool knife for it, too.

Got a couple really nice ones done this weekend.

First was a TC beerlow in some Uber rare Westinghouse ivory linen micarta. Nice and creamy!

 

[Jfowl31]

Next up was a Yankee Jack... Took the clip from the new 77 barlows and put some Culpepper amber sawcut bone on it with a houndstooth shield. This one was really fun!

That sawcut jack!!!

The other half of that 77 project got finished today.

77 barlow with a LP spear in mohogany jigged bone from Culpepper.

 

[Jfowl31]

Finished this one up for a good friend of mine. First time working with MOP and I was surprised at how well it took to sanding and buffing!

 

[glennbad]

That pearl, oh boy!

 

[waverave]

Turned out amazing

This past weekends work.

TC Barlow with blue line Westinghouse micarta and a 56 Bird Dog dressed in Blue Camel bone

 

[JTB_5]

So nice, Jordan!

You modded a TC Barlow and didn't add a caplifter? What's the world coming to!?!
