Forged steel blade by tradganger Ben Tendick. Hafted with epoxy that is over wrapped with Woodchuck rawhide. Triple braided buckskin wrist and neck thongs with cold worked copper adjuster and toggles making the neck thong secure but easily removable. Sheath is sewn and edge laced with copper. Bison hair and copper dangles.
 Rare Tecovas jasper blade hafted with pine pitch and sinew. Sheath is rawhide and buckskin laced with Woodchuck rawhide. Bison hair dangle wrapped with sinew.

Your knives are very unique and cool to see. I appreciate the professional photography some of the makers use to display their work, however your choice for displaying your work is more taste.   :biglaugh:

I just got one of these knives from Charles and it sure is a neat little knife.  For a neck knife you don't even notice it hangin' there.  Real pleased with it.   :thumbsup:  Thanks,Charles.
