ricochet:
real purdy mullet, how did you get those staight edges along the backbone and the hilt? what material is the handle?

ricktrojanowski:
That is absolutely beautiful.  Awesome knife.  What kind of stone is that?

mullet:
 This was a sawed slab of some kind of brick from Tennessee. The Gentleman that was at Pappy's Classic last year, selling points and slabs, gave me 5 precut slabs that were too hard for him to knap. I heat treated them 3 times at 550 dgs, it was still a brick. I gave one to Claude when he was going to pit fire a bunch of stuff and he said he cooked it at 800+ and it was just right. Well he chipped the point out and gave it to me and I mounted it in a piece of Birdseye Maple I got from Brian Melton. It's wrapped with some Ostrich sinew I got from Marc a few years ago also. I guess I trade a lot/ ;)
