WOW
I have to say that might be my favorite knife ever

I started to say,"some of my favorite file work" then the shape of the handle caught my eye....

and then I actually looked at the whole package

Just WOW

All of the little details are awesome! The guard matching the handle, the fluted frame and spacer...
Very nice piece Doug!

Doug that is really, really nice.  Like high grade, I may be afraid to use it nice.  But A knife was made to be used so I hope whomever is fortunate enough to take this one home has the gonads to get it dirty at least once in a while!

How do you get the ram horn to lay flat?  Or are you just using large enough pieces to cut out flat scales?  I have a few smallish ram curls around the shop and would really like to use it for scales.

Wow! I love seeing something new on a hunter. Very nice take on a presentation grade blade.

That's friggin' gorgeous!
Between this one and that last hunter with the stag and liners I'd be hard pressed to decide which is my favorite.
Well done.   :thumbsup:
