Here is my latest style of cut in my "Art in Stone". I call it a "full sexy" cut as I intentionally cut the stone slab thick. I then exaggerate the bump out on the Trapper and carve curves in several directions in the stone. It is all done by eye/hand with a lot of time grinding, grinding, grinding and then sanding, sanding and sanding! What I end up with is a very smoothly curved stone handle that feel good in your hand.... :o

If the stone is thinner I call it my "half sexy" - Most of the curves are there but it is just a little flat. :D

Aw jeez, here we go again. Now I'm gonna see spots for days . . . :D

New rule: you can't post no more pictures until I have the budget for the work.

Great job, redrummd! I've got an old SchradeUSA with a broken tip that needs some blade repair, and one scale is pretty messed up. Once I get the blade fixed, I'm leaning toward that one being my project knife.

thx - cpr
