Well, Coop worked his magic on Charlie's hunter. It really gives you a better idea of the detail of the carving. A white handle like this is hard for us to capture in a picture and Coop makes it look so easy. For those that missed our shot of the knife, it is a 4.5 Inch hunter with a sambar stag handle carved by Charlie. It has a Chad Nichols damascus blade. The knife is a takedown and separates at the nickel silver spacer in between the thick black spacers. The tang is fileworked to match the filework on the spine of the blade. I was hoping we would be able to take it to the Guild Show next month, but the customer has been waiting patiently and he comes first. Hope you like it now that you can really see it.

Nice to see this one again.
Very nice all around however the carving puts it a league of it's own.
 
it looked really awesome when I saw the picture you posted Harry, but it looks even more awesomer now, with the Coop TouchTM.
How much time do you figure you guys have into that handle? Looks like a ton of work.
 
I've handled a few of these pieces that Charlie and Harry made. I spend about two minutes simply looking at it VERY closely, to get it's 'feel'.

They will make a great sheath, too. I hope this WOW's them at the Guild Show. :thumbup::eek::thumbup:

Thank you. A knife this artistic and craftsworthy deserves to look it's finest.
