Title: First Sheep Horn
Post by: Kevin Evans on March 26, 2009, 01:03:00 PM

Here is one just recently finished.First time for the sheep horn ,and kinda fun.Although probably needs to be smoother really felt good in the hand so decided to stop grinding.
Damascus blade I done a while back and last piece from this billet 1095 and 203E
Knife has 8" blade and is 13" OA
Merino Sheep horn ,N/S guard and pins (http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn293/coonpeter/sheephorn004.jpg) (http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn293/coonpeter/sheephorn017.jpg) (http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn293/coonpeter/sheephorn023.jpg)(http:// [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn293/coonpeter/sheephorn032.jpg )

Doesn't get any better than that.
I think the more figure you leave on sheep horn -the better.
That's a knife to be proud of.

Kevin,  I think you've been fibbing us here.  It's OK to confess that you've been making knives ALL your life and that you Paid for your farm from your knife proceeds!  Beautiful  :notworthy:  tippit
