BirdDog20 Report post Posted November 18, 2010 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). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BirdDog20 Report post Posted November 18, 2010 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. ) 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
