Title: A Traditional Bow Hunter's Knife.
Post by: just_a_hunter on January 27, 2016, 04:57:00 PM

It's rare I build a knife just because I wanted to. I'm usually working on orders and what not, which is awesome but every once in a while I have to build with artistic freedom from a blue print in my head something I've been wanting to put together for a while. I've had this Osage for well over a year now and FerretWYO's post of his cool knife over in the knife forum motivated me to finally break free and put it on a knife. I love it.

This knife needs to belong to a traditional bow hunter so it's for for sale in the Sponsor Classifieds. (http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=48;t=002767)

It has lined stabilized Osage scales in a tooled, custom fit pouch sheath.

Specs:

8" overall length.
4" blade with 3 1/4" cutting surface 1 3/4" wide.
4 1/4" handle that is 3/4" ish thick.
1/8" L6 high carbon steel heat treated and tempered to approximately 60 HC.

That's a beauty!

If I'm not saving up or shopping for a bow, I'm looking for the next knife!

Unfortunately, I'm saving for a bow right now.

Thank you all again.

A custom knife is a big investment, no doubt.

I really appreciate the words and consideration.

Happy hunting!
