My cousin sent me some spalls. Knapped some nice stuff from it. Did these two recently.

Put a button of English Walnut and Black Walnut on the butt of the handle and I think I like it.

Thanks Marc.

I walk the beach and pick up drift wood that tugs at me. I don’t always know what I will do with it when I pick it up. I think this piece of driftwood and this little antler are going to make a stand for this knife.
