I have a few traditional knives that I was considering options of getting them recovered in a different material. I have one with very thick handled slipjoint with stag covers that I would love to change to a nice wood or mammoth cover.

I was hoping you could all share some nice photos of knives that have been recovered as well as who does the work. I have been having trouble searching for makers who do this.
