2 Knives
« on: October 14, 2008, 07:49:20 pm »
I posted this blade earlier, well here it is done with a sheath. My daughter claimed it and I couldn't argue so its hers. tried to get her to pose with it but all I got was a raised eyebrow in response ::) Knapped from a slab I recieved from WolfWatcher. Not sure what kind of snakeskin but it was from some scraps Sawfiler sent me :)






This one El Destructo gave me the blade, Thanks Mike :) He also gave me the cholla cactus I hafted it to, thanks again Mike :)
Have to make a sheath for it yet, oh yea this one is mine ;D

Dang those are nice Dana.  I really like that chola cactus handle.  

El destructo, do you have any more of that cactus? I would love to trade something for it.

Dana, is that thick sinew or rawhide hafting the blades?

Jonathan, its fake sinew, I traded/gave all my real sinew away ::) Will replace the fake with real ASAP ;)
I didn't chip the second one that was done by a Indian elder and given to me by El Destructo.
Kyle if you want the knife its yours son, after all your sister claimed the first one :)

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

Wow, Dana, that is really nice.  I like them both.  And it was really nice that you gave the other one to your son.  Uh......you know, looking at all the neat stuff you post on here, I've sorta adopted you as my Dad......uh......my Sister, and Brother got a nice knife......uh, yep they sure pretty, ......uh......Dad......you sure make it look easy......I don't have one like that.  Been trying to just make another decent arrow head with Mullet's bucket of rocks he gave me.  Well, once again "Dad"......they sure are pretty knives......Oh,...... I guess you're not buying that huh......Rats!  None the less, they are very nice.  As usual.

Thanks guys :) Stickbender that is the best plea I've ever heard and if I had an extra one I would send it out :)
Its funny because of all the knives, bows etc I've made I don't own any of my own knives, I have 3 bows an osage, a hickory and a sumac, my wife has 2 bows.
I'm giving these stone knives to the kids. I have a bad habit or maybe its a good habit of giving or trading all my stuff away :-\
