Title: A Couple of New Knives
Post by: madcrow on December 02, 2009, 03:25:22 am

A friend wanted a knife to give as a Christmas present so we sat in the building messing with some slabs that Blacktail sent to me.  The first is white glass.  Scott knapped it while I was working on the other which is midnight lace with some mahogany spots mixed in for good measure.  This was Scotts' first big point.  We also threw together a couple of buckskin sheaths.

Sorry about the baclight on this one.  I was in a hurry and did not get the right angle.
