Mike Turner Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hey all, This is my first knife that I had done, I started this last December and took me a few months to get'er done. This was made for my father who like to hunt upland game. I forged the blade using 1095, 1084 and 15N20 to 60 layers and twisted it. The scales are elk antler with SS pins the bolsters are pre civil war wrought iron from anchor chain the pins are mild steel. I hope you all like it, I know I make pertier horseshoes. Thanks for looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Mike, it is hard for me to say wich knife is the best "first knife" I ´ve seen but yours is one of the higher rated ones. I hope to see more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julian Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Mike I really look like the contrast b/w the handle and the blade, with the bolster as an in between color. A very clean look to it, that's what sells knives . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
