Title: A knife for vermonster13
Post by: Jeremy on January 23, 2009, 04:07:00 PM
I finished this knife awhile ago and am just now getting around to finishing the sheath.

A fairly faithful interpretation of a Schrade Sharpfinger with ebony and nickel silver trimmings

That is awesome looking Jeremy. You outdid yourself my friend. It will be an excellent match for my Black Swans.    :bigsmyl:

I'd say that is a spot on interpretation of a Schrade sharpfinger!
VERY nice Jeremy    :notworthy:

It IS better than the original. Their handle was too square for me.  I really think it's a great pattern. Lib

I agree with you there Lin. The handles always needed some rounding to get right. Jeremy looks to have done it beyond right first try.

I always liked the sharpfinger, and yours is way better design and execution than the original. Good work Jeremy. I really like the ebony and pins.
