Just finished #3

[dogman]

This is the third style (and the third knife) I have completed. I was totally pleased that I fit the front and rear bolsters and the scales so tightly. Here are some more details:

*3 1/2 inch ATS-34 blade
*7 1/4 inches overall length
*416 stainless bolsters and pins
*mammoth ivory scales
*hand rubbed satin finish on the blade and bolsters

dogman, the simple fact that you are going to only get better at this is SCARY, considering how good you are right now. Beautiful work! BRAVO! Pat yourself on the back Pal!

BOB,
You are on a mission!! That's another beauty

I like the thin profile, should be comfortable to carry AND use. Are you doing sheaths yet?? If not, send it over and I'll put it in something. That looks like a candidate for leather rather than Kydex!!
