Hunter/skinner knives

[MikeL]

Stainless steel blades. The handles are made from old Air Force camo uniform pants. Each handle is about 40 layers. Thanks for looking.

Those blade lines and grinds are awesome! I'm tempted from time to time to make another knife, but I think I spent 40 hours on my first (and only) one. Oh, and I need a forge for heat treating, so another reason to put it off. And a decent belt grinder. And....

Regards,
Michael

Yes, I feel your pain on equipment costs. My wife thinks my hobby choices are so expensive. I only have half the equipment I wish I had.

Breathtaking design and presentation.

No liar liar Pants on fire here, magnificent choice of handle material, painstaking solid ,hard work paid off in spades Mike.

I have seen masterful knives over years now I would put this your masterpiece in the highest catagory.

Well done.

I have not made many pens in the last year but got a few knives ready to be dressed and finished in the next couple days.

Thanks for sharing.

Gorgeous! Love the scales! Trying to imagine how you could make better knives with more of the equipment you'd like to have - those are so nice.

Welcome to pen making - you're gonna need a bigger shop.:wink:
