Roach Belly Trade Knife
« on: April 12, 2012, 08:17:16 PM »

I haven't made one of these in a while. 5" blade of 01 steel. Bone grips with iron pins. Sheath is center seam dyed with vinegaroon, and cuir boulli hardened. Hope you enjoy a look.

Again,

That just screams exquisite.

The best way I know of to ruin a perfectly plain longrifle is to carve and engrave it

Wick,

You've done it again. 

I'm still LOVING my French boucheron (sp.) knives you made me.  They are awesome.

In His grip,
