Just off-loaded this picture from my phone and thought I'd throw it out here. I made the knife and stand for my newest son-in-law for he and my daughter's wedding back in July. I have a friend who's a knapper and he made the blade out of some obsidian my daughter and son-in-law brought back from Glass Butte in Oregon. The antler I found several years ago while hunting bighorn sheep and the leg sinew came from one of several deer I've harvested and stripped from the legs. The blade was a little small/short, but that's as big as my friend could do with the obsidian I gave him. It's a first attempt for me. but I think it turned out great.
