    Default A Christmas assortment of knives finished.

    1st up is a 7 3/4" hunter in Alabama Damascus and stabilized black Ash burl, this handle was complete done by hand, I started out with a 8" 1/2 round file and finished with 1000g sand paper, for what that's worth, and buffed with pink compound.

    7 3/4" total
    3 1/4" blade @ 5/32 stock thickness Alabama Damascus
    handle is stabilized Black Ash Burl, brass bolster, blue g-10 stacking, with brass Mosaic pins
    sheath is 8-90z tanned leather dyed saddle tan, simple barb wire border.

    3rd is a semi forged knife, I like to say that because the knife was generally shaped via forging but completely finished on belt grinder, as it was created from an odd scrap of steel I had laying in the bone pile. Any way this one is 1095 hc clay quenched and acid etched.

    8 3/4 OAL
    blade is 3 1/2" clay quenched and acid etched to bring out Hamon
    handle is elk horn with copper bolster
    sheath is 8-8oz leather dyed saddle tan.
