4" Hawbacker Muskrat covered in burgundy linen Micarta. This is the same pattern as the Case/Bose Muskrat.

Outstanding Kerry! I love that muskrat.

That burgundy linen micarta is something else. With that finish it almost looks like cocobolo.

Ha....you're assuming they will be for sale in Atlanta. They are already spoken for <cough cough>.

Awesome work Kerry. The muskrat is a prime example of why you say "yes" when a talented maker like yourself asks "you just want me to wing it?" My chef friend is going to love the slicer. Maybe now he'll stop trying to take mine home with him.

Should have known better, guess I assumed wrong. Either way, the knives are beyond excellent!

 

[wagglebee]

Congrats on the muskrat Jason!

 

[Markesharp]

Awesome knives Kerry! :thumbup: I haven't seen many with the Burgundy linen micarta. It looks like rosewood...very nice.

 

[Ken44]

Congrats, Jason !

See you boys in Atlanta...

Just saw the Tennessee Jack on your site, wow! Beauties Kerry, beauties all.

 

[black mamba]

A pair of beauties, Kerry, and way to go Jason!

 

[wafarers]

Is that maroon linen that old Westinghouse stuff? Looks great.

 

[oldrifleman]

Ok, so I don't normally like Micarta, but that Muskrat is killer! Great work. Steven

 

[Morrow]

Kerry nailed the muskrat for sure. He knows I don't like "shiny" and also this knife was going to be used. As Vince said, Kerry certainly captured the "work horse" aspect I wanted.

 

[Old & In The Way]

Never really considered myself a fan of the muskrat pattern, but that one is extraordinary. :thumbup:
