Simon Says: " Do This"

(1/5) > >>

PetahW:
When I was proof-reading a few issues of Guns of the Old West, I ran across a copy of Doc Holliday's knife, and decided to make one as close to the pattern as I could.




So I bought a close copy of the pattern & some scale blanks





I got going on the scales......








And after applying some elbow grease, ended up with this:




IDK whether to use it as a patch knife, or a boot knife (or maybe both)....... whatcha think ?

.

Hank in WV:
Very nice. It says boot knife to me.

BEAVERMAN:
 :hairy whats the overall length?

Bigsmoke:
I do love a coffin handle knife.  Then when you put that handle on one of those double edge blades - WOW!
I likes it.
That says boot knife to me.  I always prefer a knife with a flat blade for patch cutting.
Be proud of that one and enjoy the heck out of carrying it.
