My knife builds

I don't know how I missed these. They look great!

Thanks mate. They turned out really well. I dont actually do my own leather work, but the guy who does them for me does really good work. He took my concept and executed it spot on.

Yet another version of my hunter blade. Nitro V steel with a tapered tang and full flat grind. Handle is ivory G10 and copper Corby bolts.

This is one I made a while ago. It has a few flaws, so I put it aside for a while trying to decide what to do with it. I was thinking about grinding the handle off an redoing the bevels. But I decided the wood I used for the handle is too nice to destroy. So I finished it off over the last week and it will be going to a keen deer hunter to test for me,

I think the blade is S35VN steel with a full flat grind and a tapered tang. This one has more of a drop point than what I usually put on my hunters. The handle is Gidgee with blue G10 liners, brass Loveless bolts & brass lanyard tube. First time I have used a blue liner with Gidgee and quite like how it turned out. The handle has about 10 coats of liquid wax rubbed into it, so a new finish I havent tried before.

This one is another of my hunter blades. I have been getting some really good feedback on this design. I have one with a hunter who has caped out and broken down 3 sambar stags with it in the last two weeks. He reports that he is getting through the whole animal no problem without a resharpen, then he gives it a freshen-up on a diamond stone before the next hunt.

This one is Nitro V steel with a tapered tang and full flat grind. The bevel is ground down to .2mm before the edge to make it nice and slicey. The handle is camo G10 with a thin orange and white liners & brass Loveless bolts. The sheath is army green kydex.

These hunters are super sexy blades!
