Not long, not a rifle...
« on: December 22, 2011, 07:29:35 PM »
...but of as much interest as a great knife or horn. You certainly have to appreciate the artistry of Bruce Bump in making these pieces. I'm not much of a fan of multipurpose tools, nor sidelock percussion guns. Underhammers I do find interesting, and are the only percussion pieces I own. These are certainly fun to look at--underhammer percussion damascus folding knives!

I must say that is one pretty device but doubt you would be seeing me use a knife like that while it was loaded... probably instead of slipping and cutting my finger I would blow a finger clean off or shoot myself in the gut.  Still kind of pretty.

Bruce is a custom knife and gun maker that hangs around on the blade makers forum.
Here is a photo of another one of his works of art.
I am sure his work is in the extream price category.

Although it is nice looking, I do not think I would want a knife and handgun combination.

Kermit,
That is truly a beautiful item. Bruce is certainly a master craftsman.

that would be hard to explain to the game warden, or as he is called around here: the rabbit and mullet sheriff.
