Girly knife...

[medicinewheel]

Well, since pink has been en vogue so much lately I now made a pink handled knife; waterbuffalo, leather, pink ivory, linseed oil finish.

Pink ivory is REALLY hard stuff; if I ever find a piece long enough I'll give it a try as bow wood!

Does it come from an ephelump that is "light in the loafers", or was it one that NTD shot?

         That is a nice knife Frank.

 I don't know about that pink stuff, but that's a heck of a knife, Frank.

Thanks guys!
...Oxblood... of course!
The knife is for Sabrina, you have seen her pulling some of my lighter bows for full draw pics. Will make a sheath and post it later.

Hi Frank,

Good idea and nice job!  My other half's birthday will be coming up in a few months.....so perhaps I can use your inspiration.  I take it that the pink ivory is a kind of wood?  I've never seen or heard of that before, but it makes for a nice handle.  Do you have any other name for the material?

[medicinewheel]

Thanks Bob.
Yes PI is a wood, I used it for handle riser on a bow back in September, too.

Ah yes, I must have missed that one.  Nice job on the bow, and the wood is very interesting.

Oxblood ivory.
