Excellent work Terry. Are you doing your own leather as well?terryl308 wrote:Just finished up this pair of fixed blades, the ivory handled one is for Pheasants Forever banquet and the small one is for my inventory. Both knives have Rob Thomas s.s. Damascus blades. The smaller one has black sheep horn handle. The rams horn still has a little Ren wax on it, I have to buff it off yet. But you get the idea. Thanks for looking.Terry

Fleas, i think it's a very good looking knife. Most of the 'extinct elephant' handle material is mammoth about 10,000 years old. Dan Graves once posted that the handle material he gets from 'native' Alaskans is Mastodon and is about 45,000 years old. I am not sure which of these 2 extinct elephants is the source of the handle.

Just wondered if it was what I thought it was. Thanks for the info, especially after you sold it. Still a beauty.

KaBar's new Mark I, very sturdy knife. Big difference between this and its WW II cousin.

Here is probably one of the finest fixed blade knives I have ever come across.Made in Denmark by Erling Vangedal it features a flat ground blade and an unusually fitted wooden handle(see pic).The sheath also came originally with a small sharpening steel(I have since found one that fits perfectly).Extremely light weight and very comfortable in the hand.

Having been asked about eBay purchases recently, I took a few pictures of the Marble's Dall Deweese belt knife that I picked up around 4 years ago. Including a page from Arni Dunathan's book, The Encyclopedia of Marble's Knives and Sporting Collectables for informational purposes. Really a simple yet perfectly designed little knife.

Here's another model 7-5 originally owned by someone named Bob McKinley. Got it years ago from a friend.Not sure of the age(it is a stainless blade).Feels very comfortable in the hand.
