Hey Charlie waynorth - Someone way up - dang near the beginning of this thread said something like; "Gee, I wonder what a Bunny Knife with a Lambfoot blade would look like". Well, here ya go. A two blade example of both and a single blade example of both.

Am I the only one,but when I saw the tube design for the first time it reminded me of the very classy French blue I saw in ancient buildings and museums in France.

French blue,is a lovely hue.

I thought at first you posted one of those images that when you cross your eyes a magical image appears within the design...like a bunny, that would have been cool

That's what I was thinking when I first read the post. I tried it anyway. No hidden bunnies in there!

 

[meako]

Whaaeerrt? You mean you can't see the bunnies?

That would make great wallpaper for the guest bath and the tube design would make great wallpaper for the nursery!

They'd be horns if it's a gemsbok!! I first though they were Narwahl tusks!!
But I live in Canada!!

Don't know what happened here. Somehow, I screwed the pooch.

It's OK; you are awake now!!!

 

[Buckeyegamers]

Clearly I’m going to have to make some drastic changes to how the forums knives are handled going forward.

Some folks will complain about anything. Ignore all that stuff Spark and thank you for your willingness to take on this project. It is much appreciated.

Tracking says it’s sitting in the local PO waitin for delivery tomorrow. I saw #328 has arrived, hopefully #333 is still in play. Fingers crossed.

 

[315]

Are those horns in the pic? It's very small and dark to see detail, Jim.

I don't know if they are technically horns or antlers, but it looks like they belong to a really nice gemsbok.

Charlie, no whales here. That was my Gemsbok I took with a nice Ruger No.1 in 7x57 Mauser. And I did have a Swiss army knife on me during the hunt, So this is knife related.

 

[Bloodloss]

I expect a lot of bunnies will be arriving tomorrow. Can't wait to see 'em hopping all over the forum. Maybe we'll even see #315...

was this one of those large game expeditions?

 

[CDHumiston]

No notification yet, but I have my fingers crossed...

In the meantime, I'm just making knives.

was this one of those large game expeditions?

It was a hunt I did in South Africa in 2012. I ended up taking 8 animals with 8 shots, so a pretty fun hunt. But no bunnies were harmed in the making of those memories

 

[Rusty1]

Shipping notice, Yeah!

 

[Matt_WY]

Kool ! You got Wyoming's area code. Never know you might get some knife exchange requests!

Exactly what I thought knowtracks ! That is a damn cool number, figured I’m about one of the 3-5 people that would make that correlation

Not that I shoot those fancy modern things much anymore (I'm a flintlock man), but when I do my 275 Rigby is always the go to. Such a cracking calibre. Using 156gr Norma Oryx I've had them punch through nearly the full length of a red stag.

Nice gemsbok by the way!
