That is one sweet knife. It is steal at $110.00. If I didn't have such a large collection of my own knives.

PM sent...

 

[hangmans joke]

id love one without the knot , and use cord wrap with rayskin , then id be all over it lol

any chance of that ???:thumbup:

 

[bigthresher]

I'd like to call back-up if the deal with hondo66 falls through

That's an amazing piece -- if it didn't already have two buyers I'd hop on it...

One of the first pieces I sold was a bushcraft knife with a similar battle-wrap epoxy sealed handle. Modern epoxies are just amazing -- they open up so many creative avenues.

And great choice on the steel!

Then it would look like most other tantos.

Turkshead knot and cord wrap make this one doublecool. Plus it is a Farmer grind which makes it even better. :thumbup:

I appreciate all the kind words. I will definately make more of this type. I am picking up a new (to me) anvil this Sunday, and then look out!!:thumbup:

Looks like you cloned Rick's handle and it looks good with your style blade...I think we should give Rick Marchand some credit for bringing that style into the arena.

 

[dfarmerknives]

friend, while Rick uses that almost exclusively, I have wrapped handles for years. We all know the difference between my work and Rick's.
