Customized Camillus Barlow with stag

I customized another Camillus Barlow with stag.
I did this one a little different and dyed the stag a bit, kind of like Herman William does, though he uses a different color.

Enjoy the pics and let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Dale

That looks great! If you don't mind, what was the dying method?

I used potassium permanganate.

Camillus and Camco Barlows are plentiful on ebay, but finding one with reasonable full blades is the tricky part.

Mark,
if you have an old Barlow lying around with good blades, send it to me and I can do a makeover for you. :lol:

Thank you Glenn, it means a lot especially from someone who knows what all it takes to do that. ::nod::
I will say, this is one of my favorite treatments of stag I have seen & by far the favorite of any I have done myself.
