Those are mole traps. I have three set in my yard as I type!
Picked up a few blades lately via a trade, and added a leather sheath for the leatherman.

You bet Floyd. I use the Esee knives as patterns to make wooden scales which I trade on another website.doglegg wrote:Great pick ups Tony. Bet they all get used.
I also use them for class and training purposes.
Can’t wait to use that Gibson skinning a deer this fall.

Re: Knife Photography
The hearth/platform is cedar. I also use cedar for the spindle in a bow drill. That is what is readily available in my world. Have also used yucca from a landscape plant, as it is not readily available here in MO. Have used willow and cottonwood as well.Ivoryman wrote:Killer bow drill set up and quiver. Very cool.

Excellent pic and quite a nice knife Rookie.Rookie wrote:Tuna humpback in rams horn.
That corn does look awesome Scott. Nothing wrong with a well used Western knife either, that one looks good for years more of service.TripleF wrote:Don't think she'll win any contests but the corn was awesome!!

Thanks Garry!
Tried conveying how hot it is here so I edited the contrast/brightness on this one...

Extra sharp focus Greg. Nicely set off by light color of bark and softer focus in backgtound.

Greg I accidentally did a double entry forgetting to erase the first one which is now the most recent. I used the wrong term to explain the background.

Re: Knife Photography
Great looking knife gsmith. I've always liked the look of those. Very European. I always wonder, as clumsy as I am, what I would look like after using the little blade. That's not criticism, I like the knife.
