    Green box elder

    Thanks Art. Here's the sheath made from 9oz veggie tanned. The scrap handle material made a nice lanyard bead.

    Green box elder

    Thanks guys for the kind words. I have discovered that not everyone likes green. The knife did sell but not to the person it was made for. The original customer gets another knife made for them with different handle material.

    Slipjoint Micarta & Vine

    That is very nice. The materials and file work come together to make a fine looking knife. I could see myself carrying that.

    Who all has lost a favorite knife?...

    I've lost my favorite knife 8 times in 30 years. I currently know where it is, I think.

    Green box elder

    I had an order for a knife and wanted to try something new. I used for the first time a dyed burl. I used a greenish, stabilized box elder burl from Gallery Hardwoods. The dyed burls are kinda cool. I may use more in the future. I e-mailed the customer a pic of the scales but I never heard back...

    Hunting Knife Thread, Show your knife

    I split my deer also but my friend is a horn hunter and only shoots deer that are going to be mounted. He opens them to the rib cage and reaches in when field dressing. I lay them open like a taco.

    I'd be interested to know also. I turn my white thead brown just taking it off the spool.

    Hunting Knife Thread, Show your knife

    Here's my hunting knife. It ain't much to look at but it has been done the job. This is my hunting partners favorite knife. I made this as a joke because he always puts his finger down the spine. He loves it and I must admit it is very handy for field dressing.

    Loveless style Hunter

    My first impession was that you really nailed the Loveless profile. After looking at the pic for a minute it appears that the handle has almost no contour to it. I may be wrong but it appears very flat and blocky. It is not a widely accepted practice to point out things which may be taken as...

    Gadzooks! New forum software is installed

    I do not like the new format but I will get used to it in a couple days. Knife Dogs is still in there somewhere, I just have to learn to find it. I assume the change was a need to thing and not a want to thing.

    Parafin for Wateproofing a Leather Sheath?

    I dip 95% of my sheaths. My recipe is a little unique. 50% parafin wax and 50% toilet rings. Bees wax can be a little pricey at the Hobby Lobby type stores. The toilet rings are cheap and made from a sticky wax type substance. They melt down and combine nicely with the parafin wax and the...
