Last two for 06

[Gossman Knives]

Finished these up today. A Nessmuk with some sweet looking desert ironwood and a prototype semi-skinner with an added guard.

I like that Nessmuk, Scott.

Every time I see your knives I like and appreciate them.

From the pictures, they look to be made the best that can be done. Great designs, materials and workmanship is what counts to me :thumbup:

i'd like to try to wear that Nessmuk out. nice deep belly and a good square butt for pounding thru the sternum. awesome goods.

Scott, what are the specs for that semi-skinner?

...Freakin Sweet!...

 

[Gossman Knives]

The Nessmuk is O1, 1/8" thick. The semi-skinner is 8" overall with a 3 3/4" blade, 5/32" thick. I'm going to make them out of D2 or A2.

I'm a collector and admirer of knives. This Christmas I got a belt sander and I'm in for the long haul. I'm going to start by making a few kit knives. Does anyone have any suggestions about which may be the best. I'd love to get some feedback from someone that actually has a clue. Thanks, Hal:
