Title: still raining
Post by: mullet on April 18, 2010, 07:10:32 pm

 Alright, it's still raining and I'm really bored. I finished up this blade and hafted it. I like knives. It's Kentucky Blue, Elk and Spalted Birds-eye Maple.

Eddie, nice blade an I really like how you got that black accent stripe on the haft, didyou dye your sinew or something else, looks real good. Later Bob  Oh don,t worry about the rain ours is mixed with snow. :(

 Dana, I have tons of Maple. A whole bunch from Washington and this from Maryland. Bob, It is wrapped with Ostrich sinew, then a strip of silk thread, and then sinew. And you can keep the snow. ;D

Been raining here for the last two days but I still can't get inspired to do anything. I did load the young daughter and head for San Antone day before yesterday. Idea was to get a ton of perd to bring to TN but with all the rain we stopped in Waco and went to the zoo instead..

 Thanks, Paul. The Zoo was probally a better Idea. After I walked through that wet corn feild south of San Antone carrying that rock for 2 hours, I didn't want anymore.
