Fightin' Rooster

Post by glennbad »

Just finished this one recently. Customer sent me this Fightin' Rooster that had been out-gassing. He picked out this nice dyed giraffe bone. I added a fancy shield and cut in some threading on the bolsters.

Gorgeous work Glenn (as always)! I think the small amount of pitting that I can see from the outgassing gives this knife some nice character! ::tu:: ::tu::

You can always get more money, good old knives are hard to find.

Great work on the shield inlay, the whole knife looks great.

That is really top notch!
I have not seen giraffe bone that looked that good. It makes for a perfect look for that knife!
