|
|
Aussie stalker as its been dubbed is heading out im the mail to its new home in Australia tomarrow. Im pretty tickled with it.
Specifics are as follows
5 inch W-2 high carbon hand forged blade w/ 600 grit hand finish
Stacked Nickle silver guard
Stabilised Maple burl
Sheath
Wickett and craig 9 0z.double hand stitched shoulder sheath
Integrated firestarter holder with a Montana made firestarter
Tiger strip finish on the leather
The Chatoyance in this block of wood is amazing and a very nice suprise. It gives a deep 3D effect that changes with angle of the light. (think Cats eye marble) Its almost impossible to pick up with my camera.
All in all im tickled with the whole package.
All comments and opinions are indeed welcome.

Thank you all, the owner is very oplease, his dad said he was going to pinch it before it got into his sons hands.lol The son to combat this asked me to make one for his father for xmas.
As for price, feel free to email me through my website. I rather not discuss price here as selling them is not why i am here on the forum. I just thought you all might like to see em. Infact the knives i have posted have all been presold before shown here for this reason.
im pretty sure CVC would like one though :lol: ! |

Cowgal,
Time varies with how much time away from ranch work i have and how intricate the knife. and materials. Anywhere from from 4 to 8 weeks is normal. |
