Been kinda a stressful week at work this week. Made it thru with the good Lord's help now just takin a break in the ol' pit. Been working on this knife for a couple days trying to get it all up together. Nothin new, but it's got a nice feel like the rest of em. Obsidian blade, whitetail, & figured redwood cap. Kinda likin this style sheath.




This side notch is another rock I got from Tattoo Dave and it sure worked nice. I'm guessing a grade of Burlington and it was heated to @480. Flaking this piece was a dream!





And finally a nice little ishi point I came up with the other day.



Enjoy your weekend!!

I like those notches Scott good work man! It is nice to see that very well made blade hafted up should be a prized by whom ever buys it.

Nice work all around Scott! Gotta hate long weeks like that. I've had a couple in a row myself. Momma said there'd be days like this, there'd be days like this momma said...  :laugh: it can always be worse.

Hey Stringman,
The way you knock out those points......I sure would appreciate a couple of points we could trade for.  I have some access to some premo pignut hickory staves and some river cane.  I need two or three point for some Deer hunting if you could spare some?  In KY no barbs are allowed  and 7/8 min width.
Cool points.................... appreciate any consideration.

I think you should trade me one of your future points for one of my ABO points that you take a liking to.
