I have three little hunters for sale here. Sorry for the slightly fuzzy iPhone pictures.
First one up has a 350 layer slow twist 1084FG/15N20 damascus blade, 1018 guard and buttcap with a light cold blue finish and a sambar stag handle. The sheath is the new "feather" style from Chris Kravitt at Treestump Leather. $320 for this one including PAyPal fee and USPS Priority flat rate with insurance to the US.

This one is one of the few full tang knives that I have made so far. I call it a huntr, but it is as much a big, burly hard use bush knife as anything. I had a 4.5 inch blade made from .207 CPM 3V and desert ironwood burl handle scales with chain bolts. I has a hand rubbed finish and comes with a Treestump sheath. $240 inclduing PayPal fee and USPS Priority flat rate to the US.

The last one is a small 4.25 inch hunter made from Lohmann 115W8 tool steel. This is an old formula that was used for metal cutting bandsaw blades back in the day. It has a reputation for being very tough at high hardness levels and for taking a nasty edge. It has 2% tungsten so it will hold it for a while too. The guard and pin are 416 and the handle is a very pretty piece of dark old growth Honduran rosewood burl from Belize. SOLD pending ROF.

All three are beauties and a steal at these prices. The stag one sticks out as my favorite. Look at that leather work too!
 
Bruce, that is one of Chris' off the shelf models in the new pattern. It cost significantly more than the plain border stamped ones I have typically bought in the past, but when I saw it on his website when ordering a couple of regulars a while back, I just had to have one!!I will have to have another a some point. :D
