Bruckmann re-pattern

The owner of this knife originally was going to sell it to me, but then decided to have me mod it for him. The knife itself was beautiful, except for a blowout of the handle material on the pile side. It's for that reason that he decided to have it modded. I suggested the Drover style knife like GEC's 35 that they did. This is what I came up with... before and after.

Terrific conversion Glenn! It's hard to believe that's the same knife.

Beautiful!
I'll bet the owner couldn't be more tickled if he won the lottery!

Agreed! I was interested in purchasing it from the owner, and would have left it as-is, as I had not seen another example, but I am sure there are others out there. The variations in the Bruckmann patterns are interesting to me as a collector.

Another great conversion!

That's pretty cool. Nice work Glenn, excellent looking antlers and really like the thinner carry with the blade removal. One of a kind cool.

Thanks! I actually had that knife back in my shop after. The pull on it was too stout for the owner, so I pulled it all apart and worked the spring and tangs a bit, and it was much more easy to use after.
