nice blade!  isn't the file part still too new and not flattened?
it will collect dirt and could be difficult to clean

Hmm I have some scraps of sturgeon that might work if I have enough, I also have some ray skin as well that might look nice. But idk what blood and bile would do to it.
Yeah I was careful to leave the file cutters as intact as possible, now I don’t have to carry an extra file for my broadheads out in the field ;D ;D

Liner? Where at? Between the scales? Pommel? Guard area?

Yeah that’s good wood for handles. But if I use purple my brain automatically has to add some yellow in there. Just doesn’t feel right with out it  ;D

Clint! Buddy! Of course man! The way Osage ages just makes it a gem. Even if I don’t end up using em for this, I have plenty of blades without handles!
Every custom bow I dish out, I like to throw in a knife as a thank you.
Shoot me a pm man we can work some stuff out if you want!

Thanks bud! Hope those shafts and staves are being put to work!


  I’m also not against grinding it out and doing a hidden tang.

bubby:
Liner between the scales and the Tang is what i was thinking about
