Hi Jon,
That piece looks like it came right out of the shop of an authentic 19th century knifemaker. I like the patina and that one-sided clip.....Very cool. Now, let's see the sheath. Well done, bro. Dana |

It would look right purdy hangin' from the belt of any six gun action shooter. Well done! -Jim-

Very nice, Jon. Thanks for sharing.
You know that I've got a thing for the traditional styling. You learn a lot when you try to do what they did years ago, the way that they did it then, don't you? I hope that you had fun with it. My next build is going to be my most ambitious yet. Let's hope that it turns out as I have already invested substantially in fine silver for it. I'm a bladesmith who occasionally works with silver trying to reproduce a knife of a silversmith who occasionally made knives. It should be fun. Gary __________________ Gary ABS,CKCA, ABKA,KGA |

Dana: The customer is quite an accomplished holster maker, wants to make his own sheath!
Gary: Yes it was fun! But hard to imagine how they did these things so long ago! Thanks both for the kind words!!! Jon |
