That's a very nice gift Eddie.  You either screwed something up big time or you are wanting a raise  ;D

I was told the blade was Indian Painted Jasper. It flaked real easy and was from a slab. The handle is Dinosaur bone from China. The wood is spalted Cypress and little antlers came from SC.
I've been pestered for about a year now to make him something and since we've worked together 30 years before he was chosen as President of the company he is still a friend and Colleague.

Eddie the mail box is emptied a little.
Anyway you have made a super nice point with that slab. I like the handle and the stand. I only have one question...how long have we been freinds. :)

Eddie
If you read rule #3 for this forum
It actually states that only primitive
archery subjects are permitted.
I would think you being an awesome
archer you or I could project a stone
knife via a bow.
What do you think?
That would keep us on topic at least.

Making stuff for your boss??  How often does that happen?  You are either a VERY nice guy or your boss is.  Either way, I'm jealous.   ;)

Ah, don't let him fool you. His boss sends him all over the world on lavish "work related" projects, staying in the best of hotels, beaches, and drinks on demand. ;)

Nice knife Eddie. :laugh:
