jmccustomknives Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Ok, here it is. Forged from two pieces of 7/8 cable. The guard is forged from 1 piece of 5/8 cable. The handle doesn't quite work though. Any suggestions for that center piece, the wood and leather doesn't work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmccustomknives Posted May 31, 2012 Author Share Posted May 31, 2012 Well, I replaced the wood with stag. I just wish I knew scrimshaw. A deer scrimmed on the handle would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnewberry Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 That looks better. I also think that some nice neat metal spacers would set off the antler parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharmus Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 scrimshaw isn't hard. the traditional idea was that it was something for sailors to do at sea. just pencil on some design, get it perfect and use the flat tip of a penknife to engrave. at least that's what ive been doing. will post pics soon.
