Title: New knife
Post by: Kevin Evans on June 07, 2009, 04:09:00 PM

I was messing around with sctrach pad and came up with this,its OK but I think it needs more up-sweep at the point???Sharpend clip (I think thats what you call it)Had small piece of sheep horn I saw where Lin had done this(used wood and sheep horn) so I tried it.
5" blade and is 9.75" OA
Stainless 416 guard and pins and N/s butt cap and spacer and one black spacer
sheephorn and ironwood handle (http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn293/coonpeter/Walrus013.jpg) (http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn293/coonpeter/Walrus016.jpg)

Wow!!! That is so nice. I notice how you got the sheephorn nice and even from side to side. I sure like it. Lin

Rooster. Looks beautiful, though I agree with you, little more upsweep in the  tip or a little deeper through the tip would look good. Not better just more to my style. Either way looks outstanding.
