The knife has my utmost respect. Feeling a little better and wanted to tool a bit. Making a 1 inch hatband for a special hat. Not sure how it will be finished, painted or just antiqued. Waiting till 100% to get back on the wallet, hate to mess it up.

LOL, bought a nice headknife and didn't use it for over a year as it scared me. Now it's better than sliced bread. Thank you for the compliment.

Thank you, yes Sir working on my weak area. Pictoral and Figure are my favorite and floral was lagging. Finished the left half of the wallet and started getting sick, it is sitting till I am better. A head knife came, cost 25.00 missed mine and didn't want another nice one. Surprisingly it was extremely sharp. Can I find shortcommings, sure but for the price it works well above it. Made a sheath for it don't want any red fluid leaking.

Appreciate it. Took a class on detailed floral and figure carving, this walltet back was a challenge. Giving it a go, having to go slow as the beveling side changes mid line quite often. This walllet is a "hold my beer" lifting some petals and leaves so just a show piece. Probably another day or so on it.

Thank you, it was a nice change, beveller and backgrounder only. Finished the field notes, Gini liked it when I showed it to her, started adding things to make it special. Each symbol has various meanings.

Thank you, There is something special to walk where things happened, I love history. Finished the tooling, waiting on the antique to dry. Will finish in the morning. Had to much open space on the rear to leave.

Wanted to try some Celtic inspired carving. This will be a field notes cover.

Finished the sheath.

Working on a sheath for a Buck 692. It is smaller than it looked when making the pattern. Haven't been able to do fine work fora while due to getting a piece of metal smack dab in the middle of the pupil. Got it takan out and the Dr. said their may be permanent damage, due to digging it out. My left eye had been like looking out the bottom of an old glass coke bottle for over the last week. Last 2 days it has been improving, tried doing some leather last night but without depth perception my cuts were off. Today almost normal. I am so happy, and pray my eye will finish healing.

Thank you, forgot that one. Finished it today.

Messing around with some scrap with Wildcat Hillbilly. Fun to do something whimsical.

Finished the deer sheath for a cousin, with the deer antler handle fits good.

Deer seasons comming up, fitting to start a deer themed sheath.

It does, it will happen in time. Thank you, just "a dog with a bone" my wife calls me one.

Thank you, got both of them in boxes somewhere from the move. Thank you, google can be a friend. Started on a Buck 119 sheath to go with the Bowie.
