Very nice Will, I really like using antler and brass together with a different material thrown in for the bolster, breaks the handle up and shows classssssss.

Will, looks nice, what kind of leather dye did you use? I like the leather color.

Will52100 · Dec 25, 2001

Chang, on the sheath I used mahogany dye I got from Weaver, the leather spacer were left natural, and turned that color from being soaked with super glue and pressed and polished.

BTW, anybody know where to get bronze barstock? I've got some, and at first didn't like it, but the more I use it the better I like it.

Hope every body has a merey Christmass, but if I here 'Grandmaw got run over by a raindeer' one more time I'm gonna be sick!:barf:

Will: It looks like you are on the right track, that is a beautiful kife! Continue to read every temperline and pay attention to the messages they carry. I get my brass stock from Centaur Brass, 1-800-525-1325.

Ed Fowler · Dec 26, 2001

Keith Montgomery · Dec 26, 2001

A real good looking knife Will. I find that style of blade to make for a real good hunting knife.

Ripper · Dec 28, 2001

I really like it. What length does the blade run?

Regards, Greg

Stan Wilson · Dec 28, 2001

NICE JOB!!There's somethng about a knfe like that,it makes wish we had a longer hunting season.

Will52100 · Dec 28, 2001

It has a 5 1/2" blade, and is just shy of 3/16" thick at ricasso, and tappers to about 3/32" at the tip.

I realy appreciat all the comments, I feel this is the best one yet, for fit and finish, desighn, and performance. No small amount of witch was learned from the forums and the many talented knifemakers that reside here.

Thanks,

William
