Title: knife and a few blades
Post by: JEB on December 14, 2016, 09:12:21 am

Here is a tri flow obsidian knife with a cholla handle and osage  butt cap that I made for a guy that gave me a bag full of deer antlers.

He didn't want anything for the antlers but I guess I just couldn't accept the gift, especially after he handed me two shoulder mount white tails.  He is getting up in age and wanted to pass them on I guess.

Also been working on a few other things.

Jeb you fibbed to me when you PM'ed me and said you weren't really a knaper  Those are beautiful and really nice collection of materials there. People that aren't knapers just don't have that kinda stuff laying around nice work. Have a safe trip to New Mexico
