one thing in this hobby i have a great weakness for are knives. i love reworking old table and butcher knives into something a bit more stylish. these are the ones i liked the best out of what i have done this year so far and am going to keep. i have to make sheaths for all but two of them, the last one and second one have one already. i posted some before pics of the case legbone knife before it was stained. i dont think a person can have too many knives.
first knife is an old case xx with a deer legbone handle and rawhide wrap.
second is another case xx with a deer antler crown handle.
third is an unmarked old butcher wtih a mule deer crown section with a rawhide wrap to cover a genuine booboo i made when slottong the tang.
fourth is an unmarked beef skinner i reshaped to a smaller profile similar to a nessmuk. it has curly ash handles stained with auqa fortis.
fifth is a small forged dagger with simple guard and steel pommel and a deer tine handle.
last is an original j russell table knife with bone scales and steel bolsters.
