I just put my new etch on the latest knife. The knife is for a buddy from work. When I showed him the pic he said that reminds me of a rhyno. So I am calling this my Rhyno Skinner. I have made two knives like this and have been asked by another guy from work to make him one also. It is 3/16" ATS34
and 9" OAL. I was tickled pink on the etch, it was so easy, maybe the easiest thing that I have done when it comes to knifemaking. Thanks!

Frank, you've been working really hard and it shows! Fantastic job on the knife...and the mark really turned out well! :thumbup: -Matt-
 
Thanks Grease-man. Another thing I would like an opinion on is a price for this knife. The heat treat was done by Peter's to Rc59-60. I have this knife sold for $100 with a hand stitched lether sheath which aren't the best but are as close as I can get them to the wild rose trading video. They are not that close. Thanks again.

Edited to add: This my 1800th post! I talk too dang much!

I agree. For the THF market at least $140, maybe a little more. If you don't ask for more you for sure won't get it.
 
That is nice Pancho , and I like the simplicity of your mark , looks gooooooddddd .

Of course I can only see it with one eye :D :thumbup:
 
Frank I agree with the other gents here, $140 sounds good, maybe even a bit higher like in the $150-$180 range...that's a damn fine knife! -Matt-
