Title: Bird & Trout Blowout!
Post by: skullworks on February 26, 2010, 11:44:00 AM

Here are a bunch I just finished up...maybe not really bird & trout size wise but that is what they reminded me of other than the two skinners. Gotta make sheaths for all these boys! Whew!

  (http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c154/Skullworks02/KNIVES/LiquidBuckeyeBT.jpg)
This one is damascus in a liquid pattern with buckeye burl for the bolster and the handle separated by a red spacer. Blade is 4" OAL is 8-3/4". This one is going to a Tradganger.

  (http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c154/Skullworks02/KNIVES/1095DyedMapleSkinner.jpg)
This one is a 1095 skinner blade with ebony bolster, red spacer and some gray dyed maple burl. Blade is 3-3/8" and OAL is 8-1/2"

  (http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c154/Skullworks02/KNIVES/DamascusMaple-EbonyBT.jpg)
This one is a random damascus with some Black Ash Burl, Ebony bolster and a red spacer. Blade is 4" OAL is 9"

  (http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c154/Skullworks02/KNIVES/DamascusAfzelia-EbonyBT.jpg)
This is another random damascus with some afzelia burl, ebony bolster and a red spacer. The blade is 4" and OAL 8-1/2"

  (http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c154/Skullworks02/KNIVES/MassurEbonyDamascusSkinner.jpg)
This skinner is made out of some contrasty looking damascus with some x-cut massur birch and an ebony bolster with red spacer. Blade is 3-1/2" and OAL is 8".

  (http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c154/Skullworks02/KNIVES/DamascusSplatedMapleBT.jpg)
This a random damascus B&T with some seriously spalted maple..no bolster material but does have a black spacer by the guard. Blade is 4" and OAL is 8-3/4"

All the wood on these is stabilized other than the ebony. How you enjoy them!

I'd be proud to have any one of them. Very nice
The spalted maple knocks my socks off.

Your knives are always among the best looking I have ever seen. These are no exception. Beautiful work.

These look amazing.  These are nice examples of why I have asked Skullworks to make me a custom spear point necker.  The anticipation builds every time I look in this forum.

Keep the great pics comming.   :clapper:
