Here is a gator jaw bone knife I just finished for a customer who is going to give it as a birthday gift.
The 7 1/4" blade was forged from 1 1/4" cable from a grain elevator in Washington State.
The handle is gator jaw with buffalo horn, bone and brass tacks. Total length is 13 3/8". The sheath is alligator belly hide with brass spots, cones, wood beads, horsehair and guinea feathers.
As always comments are welcome.
