Greetings All,

I took a little artistic license with the Loveless Chute pattern by increasing the blade length from 4 1/2" to 5", adding the subhilt and lengthening the double guard with lash holes. 9 3/4" OAL, mirror finish CPM-154, black liners on tapered tang. All comments welcome.
Be well,
TK

Stunning knife, that musk ox is gorgeous!
 
Very nice....that’s one material I don’t have any of that I’ve got to get on a knife....very cool.
 
Excellent work as always. The handle material looks to have some great chatoyance going on.
 
Thanks to all for the kind words. :)

Musk Ox is beautiful stuff with a lot of chatoyance and character. Another great thing about it is the figure goes all the way through it so you can contour it rather than having to work off the bottom to preserve the figure as with stag or mammoth ivory.
