After the Blade Show in June, my family and I took a vaction my next time home, so that left little shop time, but I was able to get a few things made this last time off.All photos are by Scott Roush, whose style of photography fits my work very well.First up is two neck knives, one in a spike antler crown with a 1080 blade.
Next one is handled in mammath ivory and a Chad Nichols damascus blade.The sheath on this one has a rare earth magnet to help with retention, and also has a forged mild steel element for a bail.
This one is a full tang fixed blade with a 1080 blade and mammoth ivory scales.Scott lost track of where he was with the photos, so we got two great images of this one with different backgrounds!
This next one is partial tang, 1080 blade, and has an artifact walrus ivory handle that was purchased from Mark Knapp.My first use of walrus ivory ,BTW.
Last is an elk antler tip friction folder that I made in memory of my freind Dave Cole, who's favorite thing to make was this type of folder.This one has a stand of weathered oak and forged elements.
Hope you enjoy the look, and thanks for the great photos Scott!
