Sweet looking knifes, I wish I had Novaculite to work with, we have nothing up here in Michigan, toilet tanks and whatever I can pick up at the classic.

Really like the leg bone knife! Looks sharp!

 If I might make a suggestion : Get you some real sinew, it' will make your wraps look more authentic. ;)

thanks much guys

timo- yeah i like the real sinew look better myself but i typically dont make these to "keep" if you know what i mean. ::) seems the general public prefers the artificial look. cant argue with what works..lol

Love the knives Ryan!  They look great and so does the colored novaculite.  I really like the second one. :)
