Ram's horn & Damascus

[Terry L. Vandeventer]

Good to be back in the shop after several months. Weather has been fantastic down here in Mississippi and I'm finally getting some things done. Here's a hunter/utility with 1084, 1095, & 15n20 ladder damascus. The client requested a 416 stainless guard & spacer, silicon bronze filework & pins, and ram's horn. Here's what I came up with. Pretty much my standard hunter design but he wanted it a little larger with a 4 1/2" blade. The grip is meaty and very comfortable. Sheath is made by me. Hand-stitched with farm-raised American Alligator inlay.

Cheers.

Great job on both the knife and the sheath. I've come to appreciate nice sheephorn like that a lot more over the years.

Nice the way you kept the sheep horn texture out where it's supposed to be. It's a beautiful knife Terry.

Beautiful knife. And the sheath is just a huge bonus. I understant those who farm out the sheahts, but it's always cool when a maker does it all.
