Better than a pearl handled knife ...

Recommended Posts

My father basically made this knife from scratch using an broken, old discarded file, and a boiled out leg bone from one of our camp meat kills. I think the results were outstanding. I think he's making another knife from the one we pulled this year.

He puts some crazy things together in his spare time. Here he has topped his hiking stick with a javelina snout. Lol. (picture of a decent pickup rack that i found last year).

Hiking stick is in the lower picture. Holding it with his right hand. Probably a bad picture of it b/c it only shows the snout. It's actually a yucca stick with the top wrapped in leather cept his has a snout atop his. (I declined to have mine so adorned. :lol: )

 

We've used these same ones for the last 12 years or so. Great to steady your binoculars for a quick glass. Carry the deer out whole, so it helps with balance.

 

 

He made the knife by boiling out the bone, using a belt sander to create the blade and filling the bone w/ epoxy to hold the blade in place. The handguard and the end piece he fashioned out of silver. Pretty sweet. I want one. :lol:
