Bladecollector, nice. The scrimshaw on all those is done very well. Love scrimshaw work with ships.

Thanks guys! Here's my example of the Schrade I*XL 2-blade canoe in white bone, also scrimmed by Feeney.

Love the scrimshaw! I'm going to have to keep an eye out for those! I have a couple of Schrade / IXL / Wostenholm canoes but none with scrimshaw.

SharpShiney, Squach, bladecollector, hats off to all of you. Fabulous show, loved checking out every one. Beautiful color on that Schrade Squach. Love the ivory bcollector, and that is some mean antler SShiney. Wow.

More great Schrade! Thanks for posting.

I also bought a blank MOP canoe similar to yours. I've polished it and sent it to Bill Feeney in Mass. He's going to put Venus/Aphrodite (in black ink only) on it. I'm also going to have the whole Cabanel "Birth of Venus" painting reproduced on a matching ivory slab similar to those found on the Orgill Bros. sets. I think I will have quite the trio when its done. Stay tuned!

Beautiful Bladecollector, love the idea of that.
Charlie, as always, very nice.
Since we are sharing scrimshaw work, here is a Case knife that I had scrimshawed about 3 years ago by Gary Harbour. I’ve since sold the entire set of 6 ivory handled knives. This was the colored scrimshaw work on the canoe. Gary is another great scrimshander.

I like that Garry. I haven’t seen one with a sea otter. It’s done very well.

Some great bones on that one. I'm still trying to decide on a Canoe to carry, and you may well have swayed me.

Thanks Dan.

The canoe I carry most frequently is one of my yellow Delrin CV canoes. I carried a gray smooth bone Boker 200 for years but it was a gift from my wife and after she passed away I retired it to the collection. Wouldn't want to lose, or damage it.

Very sweet Canoe. Makes me wish I could justify purchasing the proof set Shepherd Hills has on offer!

Nice Charlie, that green is done very well on this one, and I love green handles on knives.

Yes indeed...the Green Apple Pocket Worn Bone is very attractive. ::tu::

So...what exactly is the blade etch commemorating 25 years of?...Pocket Worn bone?? ::shrug::
