So, here I was on Friday evening with a couple hours free (in the middle of a week and a half of out of town family) and I wanted to make a few more photos worth of progress on the knife build I'm doing the step-by step pictorial on. Well, I go out to the shed and realize I don't have any brass stock for the bolsters, just nickle silver! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smiliesmack.gif
So, after a few minutes on the internet, I've got brass barstock coming in from 4 different directions, but none of it is here yet, so I have to shift over to the next order in line...
This was a special request with a wrinkle... I don't believe it's ever been done before and I really hope it works.
The basics were a pure, no frills but purely custom, working Coyote knife, and the wrinkle was a tail stripper built into the grip. Needless to say, I got excited about trying to make it happen!
Just got done...
(There's no mark on the blade, that's overhead power lines I didn't notice.)
(There's no mark on the blade, that's over head power lines again.)
I'll be sending the new owner a PM then heading out to build a Kydex pack sheath for it. (PUT THE PACK SHEATH ON BEFORE USING THE STRIPPER... DOGGONE IT! It's SHARP!)
The grips are cedar colored Micarta, 2 Stainless Mosaic pins, and 2 Silver Nickle pins.
