I was thinking antler on the left one without a brass guard but I like the sound of it with. I also thought brass guard on the middle one was a sure thing. I may make up all three and pick the best one to head out.

Btw, I recieved my knife from Wildman.  Its offical, I have a wildman collection.  The newst knife looks old and beaten up.  I love it.  I showed it to a friend that does pencil drawings from the revolutionary and civils wars.  He loved it and wanted to use it in some pics.  I told him tough luck.  When he does borrow stuff, he don't bother bringing it back.

Glad it made it safe. I have an older very talented friend who is a perfectionist he says I have a rough finish. I explained to him that I build patinia into everything I make. If I build an era knife or axe I want it to look like its been around that long. The only flintlock I have done looks like it has been on 1000 trails and a war or two. ;D

I just got an amazing little knife from KHalverson. I love it. Its just the right size for every day carry. I'm gonna have to start wearing a belt just so I can carry it with me. I love the hamon line and the tiger maple scales( I think ). I better post the pics before I get carried away describing it.

So it's been so cold(single digits without the windchill) I have done squat in my shop. Today I got the guff to get this handle on. And ruined my quilted maple scales. SoOOOooo... Who doesn't like Birdseye  ;)

My drill bit wasn't as sharp as I thought and I don't have any oval pins  O:)
