Greetings everyone,

Here’s one that I just finished. It’s a Ring Hilt Skinning Knife that I made for a guy at work. The knife is stock removal O1, from 3/16 inch Starrett precision ground flat stock. The handle is stabilized Beech with red vulcanized spacers and titanium pins. The knife is 10.5 inches overall, and the blade is about 5.69 inches long. The blade is 1.5 inches at the widest point and the ring hole is 1.25 inches. (The guy I made it for is 6’4” and has big hands.) I made the sheath from 8-9 oz vegetable tanned leather, and dyed it British Tan.

I would like to see that handle with a 4.25" Loveless semi-skinner blade. That would be quite practical in my opinion..
 
Nice work. I like that ring but worry abit about the wood being so thin. Sure looks cool.
