Ken,
You stayed up all night just to finish that? Just kidding man, that's a nice knife! Feels really good to get one like that done. The goodun's always keep me up all night, just can't put the thing down when that close to finishing.
What other specs can you share? Steel, HT, working on the sheath?
I enjoy making the larger blades more and more lately.
Again nice knife.
Crex

Very nice. I like the stacked leather at the butt. I have been trying to find a good way to transition from steel to stag on a bowie I am making and I think you just gave it to me. Thanks
Steve

Not too bad for some old man in Texas!

Nice, my friend, very nice! I've really been liking these stag and leather and wood fighters of late! Upscale!

My only negative: READ THAT DANGED CAMERA MANUAL.



Then ya could show is the concho inlayed in the butt.

Good work, Ken.

Thumbs up

Thanks for the kind words. Coming from fellow makers, means a great deal to me.

Very nice Ken.

A Mexican loop sheath would sure be a nice compliment
