Walnut Hunter

Karl B. Andersen · Nov 6, 2006

A knife for the Finely Dressed Hunter! (whatever!)
Sculpted and Stabilized Claro Walnut handle with hot-blued fittings.
Forged 5160 blade.
Take-down for ease of maintenance and something to do on Saturday night!

Really have to complement you on the nice designs and quality of craftsmanship is outstanding on all your knives. Wow!

The color and the way you did the quard is great itself. Also, splits the knife visually showing the blade and handle even more.

I really just couldn't get the effect that Walnut has. It's much nicer than it appears here. It's the highly grained Walnut used for high-end gun stocks.

When I was looking at the handle, I had the feeling that it should be checkered, like a high-end gunstock.

Nice work. I love the guards on your knives, and the take-down construction.

Why would you need a knife that big to hunt walnuts?

Sorry, couldn't resist. It looks great, I like the screwdriver for the tang, nice touch.

Because around here, our nuts get PRETTY BIG!

I've noticed that you've been on edge recently.

Karl B. Andersen · Nov 11, 2006

I'ts because I've just had my nose to the grind stone!
But don't take me too seriously, I'll get a handle on it tomorrow!
