rleather Report post Posted August 9, 2022 Chuck, it is good to see some of your blades again. It does not get any better than those two , all I can say is perfect! I finally did my first inlaid (ostrich), pancake sheath. I will have to do more, it was fun. Thanks for the pics. 5 hours ago, chuck123wapati said: special order, two knives and sheaths that say Wyoming.

tsunkasapa Report post Posted August 9, 2022 Nice work all around. I just removed a rattler from my son's back yard. I use one of those 'extended reach' grabbers and a pillowcase. Then I transport them out away from the house and send them on their way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
