Title: Sheep Horn Caper for GSMBS
Post by: tippit on February 24, 2011, 11:40:00 AM
I needed to take a few Keeslar style blades to GSMBS since Joe will be the forging demonstrator.  I gave most of them away now I've got to kick into gear.  I leave in a week for the blade symposium.  

First one finished is a sheep horn caper 7 1/2 inches OAL with a 3 1/2 inch blade...Doc

That is one sharp looking knife Jeff. I really like the grind and blade profile. Very nice indeed!

Awesome knife!! I too, love the profile and I really like the forged finger gaurd. And that sheep horn goes perfectly with that style.

That's another work of art.

I feel really bad that you have to slave over a hot forge to replace what I LOVE to carry on my belt. Well, not really, cause I know you LOVE to slave over a hot forge and create beautiful works of art for others to drool over  :bigsmyl:  

Keep up the good work and we'll see you in July.
