More recent work
Here's a few more that I recently finished.
TL-29...linerlock moved to main blade, thonghole, EO notch. The wood is Redheart.
Next is a Buck Creek that had no covers and mangled liners. Used Giraffe bone and a diamond shield.
Last, a 34OT mod.

As always Glenn, superb work. You really know how to bring new life to an old, worn out knife...

Re: More recent work
I've got the twin of that Buck Creek, and I might have to buy some giraffe bone, that looks great. Never tried inlaying a shield, yet. Baby steps for me....on the other hand, if I bought two sets of G.B., I could take a risk, and have a spare set, if I accidentally did NOT screw it up the first go-round.
Re: More recent work
Glenn those are top notch! Do you buy your shields or make them?

Re: More recent work
Well done Glenn. That 34OT transformation really grabs my attention but all three are vast improvements.

Thanks everyone!#goldpan wrote:Glenn those are top notch! Do you buy your shields or make them?
I buy most shields, but some you just have to make by hand.
Re: More recent work
All of those look great! Thanks for sharing

Re: More recent work
Glenn, I'm loving that Giraffe bone. The E/O knocked my socks off, and I wasn't even wearing socks. Beautiful work.
Re: More recent work
Glenn, you never cease to amaze with your impeccable skill and craftsmanship. Well done.

Glenn,
I always love your work, but the transformation of the old TL-29s is my FAVORITE!
You take a butt-ugly beast and turn it into a piece of ART.

Glenn, PM sent.
Re: More recent work
Awesome work Glenn!
Normally I wouldn't use red heart on a small folder but that one came out very nice!
The 34OT is real eye candy and the Buck Creek is miraculous! Spectacular save!
