Horn handle knife
« on: March 04, 2021, 03:40:48 PM »
Special knife just finished.  10”x1 1/8” x 1/4” blade with 7 3/4” false edge and Spanish notches (Hill Pearce inspired) iron s guard with iron bolster, 4 1/2” octagon to round horn handle with silver end cap threaded through tang and iron nut.  This is most likely the knife I am donating for the Contemporary Longrifle Association auction

In the words of Crocodile Dundee,

Very well done. Beautiful work. I really like the octagon-round hilt.

Looking good with the handle all polished up and the silver cap added.

Love your work on the knife.  It has a lot of the Spanish belduque in it. James Levy

Fine, fine knife.  What's not to like.
