Great looking knife. Hickory Bill makes a fine knife blank.

I am impressed by the quality of the blank I got from Hickorybill, I know I will be calling him soon about some more blanks. I really had a lot of fun and thinking time while trying to match the antler to the blank, It was all lopsided at first then I had to slice off more antler to make it a little more symmetrical, even tho it is still off it does fit my big fat mitt just right. I have been kicking the idea of making my own kiln from a brake drum, some pipe and an old hair blower, and you guessed it DUCT TAPE!!!!! NOT TOO SURE IF i WANT TO TRY THAT ROUTE YET, JUST A THOUGHT. Wife will not know anything about it till it is done if I decide to build it. Money is not the issue as I will make it for free out of junk stuff, its the thought of high heat and me that would bother her, did I mention she keeps my life insurance policy( or shall I say, her life insurance policy on me) current!!! I still do not know why????

Like R.B. said, if that is your first knife, it looks like you have been building them for a while. Very nice knife, I love that type of blade and handle shape, and the file work, is very nice. Man, can't wait to see what you do next for the second knife. Very nice over all. I would definitely carry that one with pride.

I am in the process of building my first sheath for this knife, gonna take a little time with work and all of the honey dos that I am always trying to get out of the way so I can play. I will add pics of the sheath when I finish it.
