The bowier that made my wife and my bow's gave us some wood left over from the builds .
So I had these knives made to match them .

Yep
Nice
Y'all are watching too much HGTV
I think its awesome! Who the heck WOULDN'T want a knife to match your hunting bow? Those are fantastic graps!
Nice bows, nice knives.
Nope. But those look nice.
That is a fantastic idea, and even better reality, Graps! Very nice!
Practically nothing in my kit matches anything else! I like to think of it as eclectic!
I did this one quite few years ago.

Also did a limb T-Handle and a file unfinshed in this pic but use it now.
Rob Lee sent me the dropoffs on my bow so that is what I made.
Great Looking Knives!
Very nice Kip .

Bisch

No time to even think about such things right now and the material on the handle of my Havalon or skeletonized titanium Kestrel would look awful in a bow riser!
I asked for the sight window cut out from my Brackenbury. My custom knife maker friend used it to make new slabs on a Buck folder.
No. I'm lucky if my socks match.
I'm with Charlie here, but one day, I may try making a knife out of Figured Walnut.

What Stump said.
I do have one that matches. The first custom longbow I purchased was a Northern Mist Classic. Bolivian Rosewood riser and cherry veneers. Not long after the bow arrived I had Shawn Swafford build me an Autumn Hunter with bolivian rosewood to match.
Are they suppose to.
I don't have any,but I think it's pretty cool.
You have some very talented folks here.
Very nice equipment.

Some very sharp looking knives here. Mine has an orange handle; figure I need all the help I can get after I lay it down somewhere

Of course they have to match! Bacote scales and lams.
Yes, I had a bow handle Made of Macassar and with the leftover wood I had a knife custom made by a knife maker and exceptional longbow hunter
Well, they are both potentially deadly, but I can't prove it with a picture this year!
I have one... A Limited Edition Bocote Schafer Silvertip (#13) in Memory of Paul Schafer. It came with a beautiful matching fixed blade knife, and a large framed photo of Paul with his bow killed Grizzly.

My riser on my Meigs ie Osage and Purple heart. Tim saved me the scraps to make scales for my skinner....worked well on my son's elk over the weekend
Yep, not wood from the making of the bow, but same woods.

when I had my Cari-bow made, abe sent me the riser window cut out. I had a little skinning knife made and it turned out beautiful, even had the moose antler in the butt of the handle. On its maiden hunting trip it skinned 2 Ohio bucks, then I lost it on the trip home. must have kicked it out at a gas station. I still get sick thinking about it.
Only in its edge.
Both are sharp, however my knife is a better match for my broadheads.
Several years ago I had Norm Johnson send some of the wood he used to build my Blacktail to Doug Campbell. This is the damascus knife he fashioned for me.

Nope it would be too shiny to hunt with.

My Toelke Pika with my hand forged Tippit knife. Dan sent me some wood and black glass to match...tippit

Nice work Tippit! That little blade is very eye catching.
