Small deer leg bone dagger

[RickD]

This started out as a deer leg bone powder measure but I got distracted and it ended up as a small damascus dagger..4 3/4" blade with a 4 3/4" deer leg bone handle..Swampy`s fault ya know

[tom hargrove]

real nice i love the wooden bolster :bow:

 

[RickD]

Had to add the wood so the blade out fit the bone..Started out as a powder measure but got to piddling around with the blade..

Rick - Did you make the steel? That is a great swirl pattern. GC

good work, make a dandy patch knife and small game blade. is that cable damascus?

 

[RickD]

Thats a piece of damascus that John forged..I noticed it as I was about to make a powder measure from the deer leg bone and finished it in to a blade for the bone..

Hey Blizzard, cable looks like a chain pickerel if it's done right. That looks like simple twist...Bud

 

[RickD]

Sorry yes it is a simple twist and not cable damascus

Hey I like that! I'll have too say I am not wild about some Damascus but, I like the way that one turned out!

RickD,
Not really into daggers, but I do love
damascus steeled knives. So do the knifesmiths
that make them. I have several and I don't
regret what I paid for anyone of them.
