Nobody makes a knife like J.D. Ware!

He works in the Yucatán Peninsula using old Mexican and Spanish coins for the escutcheon. The handles are made from local deer antlers and the horns of bullfighting bulls.

Thank you Paul, @Chui-888 , it has been a while. Yes, Jeff puts the heart and soul of himself, Mexico, and the animals in his work. My photographs do not do justice to the bull’s horn. In reality, it is translucent. And the carving on the blade is mesmerizing.

@Chui-888 , BTW, I agree with The Chunk, that is one good looking cat!

Cold and rainy, so I've stayed inside today. But I did carry these out for some pictures, guess that means I toted them. After scouring the net, I'm 90% sure the OVB is Camillus made. The overall shape,bolsters and the nailnick and swedge looks like the pics I've seen of Camillus's #9. Only thing seems off is the upper cover pin, all the delrin #9's don't have a pin there. And the couple pics I found of bone covers its farther from the bolsters, back pass the center pin.
