Title: Bone handled knife
Post by: lonehunter on January 28, 2012, 11:09:37 AM

4 3/4" Blade of A-2 Steel
4 1/8" full tang handle
Bone Slabs
Iron pins
Cross Draw sheath
Climbing vine filework on spine
That is suppose to be a arrowhead in the blade, even though it looks like a campsite symbol on a state park map. LOL
Veg Tan sheath with rawhide wrap
Bone slabs stained with leather dye
As always, Thanks for looking and all comments welcome!

Outstanding!  I really like the ball shaped handle, I can imagine how nice it must feel in the hand.
