Title: New Neck knife
Post by: _Jon_ on January 18, 2012, 04:54:19 pm

I went to visit a friend who makes bows in Nashville.  He made a new riser for my limbs I had to pick up.  He’s a heck of a bow builder by the way.  Some of you all may know him, his name is Allen Corn.  Anyhow he gave me a knife blank he’d finished up and I had some really nice wood Joe sent me so the two together made a pretty neck knife.  I’m unsure what the wood is Joe gave me, but the blade is Saw Mill from Shannon. 

Thanks to my friends I have a neck knife.  I’ve made many of these type but I always give them away to friends.  This one I think I’ll hang on to for a little while.

That is a nice looking piece of wood to go with a heck of a knife, John. It's sweet!

I would feel no shame in owning or using that knife.  In fact, I'd probably feel no shame in stealing it.  Just sayin'.

You should keep an eye on it.

Wow--now that's a pretty knife.  I think the wood may have come from an old maple rifle stock blank I had laying around!  I knew you would make something beautiful from it!  A/Ho Joe
