Gentlemen

I made a knife and sheath for a friends farther.
The blade is grinded by Danish knife maker Søren P Stormgaar.
My friend and I "just" slapped on the wooden scales with some pins and I clued together some leather for a sheath.
The Whisky is all gone now - it took that long

Note the spacers they are red and white like the Danish flag.



Cheers,

André

Very nice. Almost too nice to use in the field.

Very nice -- and excellent job on the pictures as usual!

Jeffery- Your photography is awesome! I love looking at your creations. Give me a short explanation of the cartridges in your ammo belt. Looks like your have some Failsafes in with some soft point bullets and then the pointed solids (?). Thanks.

cartriges are .375 H&H right to left:
200 grn Impala solids
270 grn Rhino Solid shank
235 grn Woodleigh PP soft nose

Cheers,

André

Nice knife! I would have you make me one if you ship knives in and out of Denmark!....... ........DJ

& the wood is what type?

DJ
I can ship knives no problem, just not not get them with Danish postal service
I am however rather slow when it comes to making a knife .

D Hum.
The wood is bubinga and the knife steel is RWL-34.

Cheers,

André

Andre'-

That is a beautiful knife. The file work on the blade is fantastic.

PM sent.

Beatiful knife my friend.Juan

Hvad Siger Du...

Nice looking knife, and it has a good blade design.

Jeffery- I will say it again, your photography is awesome!

bravo!

i like the choice of bubinga, the functional and pretty top texturing and the pins.

Jeffery, you just piss me off! You are so talented, and a great photographer too! Plus, thanks to you and Andre Mertens I have pile of Sauer 202 rifles around here that depleted my budget....

What a great looking blade. I remain jealous....When I can quit working so much some day, I want to learn to be able to make knives.....

Thanks for sharing the pics!!!--Don

That sure is some fantastic "slapping" you did.

Thanks for all the kind words. I have not been making anu knives since this one NO time.
I got lots of half done projects maybe in the winter.

Cheers,

André

besides the props to set up the theme for your photos, your execution and lighting are sweet! I made a homemade lightbox but getting my camera set up to show pure white is kicking my ass! I really need to download the owners manual.

Most of my pictures are taken outside with natural light.
Lightbox is great but I like the natural light. A good cloudy day is perfect filter for great pictures.
Bright sunlight is NOT ideal for shiny objects.

Cheers,

André

Nicely done! Pretty file work too. Keep at it, you'll get incurabley infected just like some of the rest of us (Could be that you already are!)

Good looking knife. I really like the bubinga.
