Unbadged Cabelas Alaskan Guide 119.
That’s just beautiful. I just started last night working my way backwards through the pictures just because I wanted to see some nice knives.

Thanks!
There are some real gems to be found at the Buck store in Idaho if one can make the trip.

I did it my way
This was a stock 55 (Dymondwood). It had a huge color variance mark to pile. Almost like a dang Christmas knife.
I torched the handle which gave a nice even dark (if slightly charred) look. Bonus was some nice extra wood texture.
Thing was, it did swell the "wood" and I had to chamfer it back down at the bolster transitions.
Treated the handle with mineral oil and Ren Wax and a good hand rub down.
Also cut a choil in the blade. Didn't like the transition edge to tang. Like it better now.
It is what it is and I made it mine.

Your picture here and in the other thread is not showing. It's just a page full of gibberish.

Really? Some people see it. Even here, "Alone" gave a like to the picture. Hmm... How about now?

glad it does for you. Looks like Adobe Acrobat/PDF code, to me.

I don't see it either. Are you doing 'Attach files' and then insert thumbnail/full image or some other method?Really? Some people see it. Even here, "Alone" gave a like to the picture. Hmm... How about now?
He's hosting them on Google. They show initially, but then turn into a wall of code.

I have had this one for a while, I don’t carry it too often but it is a favorite for sure, I have two of these, I got this one for $10 at a rummage sale its pretty loose and beat up. My other one is just about as new. I also have a thinner one that has one of those seatbelt hooks on it. I don't see many of them these days but they certainly are around.
