This was supposed to be a bigger skinner and WIDE! but she cracked alittle when I quenched her. so I reworked it and this is what I ended up with.<>< (http://inlinethumb37.webshots.com/27556/2082180460051876912S500x500Q85.jpg) (http://sports.webshots.com/photo/2082180460051876912BjLYoW)
I LIKE it!!!! Whats the handle wood??
Didja heat the oil Frank? Kind of slows down the shock effect of the quench. Nice job none the less.

Yep always do. I thnk because maybe the blade is 1/4' thick I should have left it in the oil a tad longer before dipping into the water.<><
Very nice Frank, i love the one styled like it, i got from you a ways back. My favorite skinning knife.
Saaaaawweeeet! :clapper: Those scales look like wenge or bacote. Are they? Thanks for posting.

They are Bocote. I wish it would have not cracked. I am going to make another one like this one was suppose to belike.<><
