Bocote Drop Point Hunter!

[Longdog]

Just finished this guy up today. It was a whole lot of fun, but presented me with many challenges that i had to work around, but as always it was a great learning experience. It still needs a sheath and final edge, but i got anxious to snap some pics!
Tell me what you guys think! thanks. knife #11

Longdogs,
Yes both of you! Great fit & finish on a classic drop point knife. I also would like to say that Bocote is one of my favorite woods. The way the grain shows when you sculpt the handle has such class. Long dog is real classy too!

That knife is way to nice not to have your mark on it.
