New Bird and Trout Knife
« on: January 02, 2011, 12:52:24 am »
Here's a little bird and trout knife with finger ring that I just finished up for my wife's grandfather.  It's made from a small 6" Nicholson file.  The tang is forged and the blade is stock removal.  Thanks for looking :)

 That is pretty. I'd like to have one of those.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Very cool. Are you taking orders?

That IS very cool, like everything else you've posted on the forum.  I wish I could spend some time working with you to learn some tricks of the trade!

Love the one-piece simplicity and the vine work.  Nice one.
