[RickD]

I know these arent PC correct but doesnt matter,I like them anyways..Had a friend do the scrimshaw with Native Americans on the elk antler handles..Sent them off to another friend so he could make the sheaths for them..

Very nice blades Rick! :thumbsup: The scrim work is incredable! I see some activity in the steel along the blades. What type of steel, heat treat, etc.? Tell us about them, please. Specs, man! We need specs! :yakyak:

 

[RickD]

The blades are made from 1095 and have been triple quenched,they do have a hamon line that is coverd by the acid etching..I etched the blades mostly because I dont like a shiney blade..The smaller knife blade is around 11" and the larger one is 12"

 

[laffingman67]

That was a quick reply. :grin: I like the acid etch on a blade! It really helps to bring out the activity in the steel. Once again, Great job! :bow:

Rick, they look good from my chair. I like the leather on the scrimmed knife. Is that a feather carved into the front? Bud

 

[AaronT]

I'd be proud to own, but afraid to use, any of those. All of the craftsmanship involved is outstanding, but the scrim work is just jaw-dropping!

Aaron,
