Good Sunday morning everyone!
Background is a card table my Mom was going to throw away. It's been around as long as I can remember and I'm 55 years old. I couldn't bear to see it go! I might be a hoarder? :o

Well, I guess there goes any chance of me taking that Oeser off your hands :) Seriously though, very cool knife!
 
Thanks gents. I chose materials I liked and the design is what I wanted for my outdoor activities. I am really looking forward to carrying it.

Great pictures everyone. I have spent the morning working on a knife project. I am looking forward to using this one when our deer season starts in a few weeks.

there is still much to do. The blade is my Damascus 1084 and 15N20. The collars are wrought iron from a wagon from the late 1800's with a coined 416 ss spacer. The wood is 3000 year old bog oak.

Time to shower, shave and head to Sunday afternoon service.

Enjoy your Sunday everyone.

Chris - If you have enough material left, I would like you to make me one about ten times that big, so I can chop Markesharp's BR Parang in half. ;):D:D:rolleyes:

Hahaha!!! I spit water on my laptop reading that! :barf: You couldn't even swing my BR Parang Primble! :eek: You would tip over as soon as I handed it to you! :eek: :confused::rolleyes::D:D:D
 
Thanks Mark. The wood had been drilled and fitted to the tang. I coated the tang with a release agent to keep the epoxy from making it permanent. So it's bedded where the fit up is exact. I will be able to have each piece fully finished before final assembly.

Great idea Chris. I have never done a hidden tang knife, and that makes a lot of sense to be able to finish the handle apart from the knife. Thanks.
 
Happy Sunday to everyone. I was enjoying a cup of tea on the porch this morning enjoying the sights and sounds before my little one wakes up.



 
Great pic of your Barlow Justin, that is a nice time to be awake :)
 
Happy Sunday everyone!

The girlfriend is making breakfast while I watch a race and take pictures of knives. She's a keeper.

Great selection. I normally carry two slippies daily and my Case/Bose coffin jack is normally 1 of the 2.

Thanks!!

They're the only two traditionals that I own but each was carefully chosen. The Bose is a fantastic knife and it's gonna be tough choosing between them each day!
