Title: HCC neck knife
Post by: Stringman on December 23, 2015, 02:38:45 pm

Just finished the sheath on this little neck knife. Made the pocket too tight so I had to trim the knife edge just a freckle to make it fit better.

Fits good now. If I can hang onto this one, it might make it to Pappy's raffle table this spring.

I really like this knife. :) As you know I gave away the knife you made and I got in a trade at last year's classic!  It doesn't look like I will make it to this year's classic.  We are waiting and hoping to have some back surgery for my wife.  Will miss the opportunity to bid on this knife as it looks to be an awesome skinner!  Joe

I'm not him but it's Horse Creek Chert (HCC), pretty stuff.

 Sorry to hear that Joe, praying your wife has a speedy recovery.

 Thanks turbo you are correct.

That horse creek is great stuff! Got that head you made me on the wall in my knapping shed and I gotta keep making sure my wife doesn't take it to use as jewelry or something.
