Small Bird Knife

I recently acquired this little beauty. It was made by British maker Penillion. It has a modified Grand Levitt blade, stag handle and copper bolster and pins. What looks like a gap between the stag and bolster is actually a hard wood spacer. This feels really great.

I have had some blades made by Grand Levitt of Snake River Knives on ebay
http://stores.ebay.com/snakeriverknives ... esstQQtZkm and they are top notch IMO.
They are also MUCH MUCH better in quality of a competitor Two Finger knife.

I have found Grand's blades to be much better in quality, tighter twists, better raindrop pattern, heck the list can go on and on.
Great looking knife there s-k and a blade made by one of the best bladesmiths on ebay.

Way to go, S-K !
I really like that knife. Now, if you just had a chance to clean some fresh grouse...(sigh).
