2Nd Scandi Sheath And A Leather Trim Knife With Lizard Inlay

[rawcustom]

Just finished up my second Scandinavian style sheath. Spring time is fishing time, so I've been building a few fillet knives. I like the wooden insert with these thin and pointed blades. I also made up a new leather trim knife using CPM-M4 steel and mammoth tooth for the handle. After finishing it up, I decided I should try to dress the sheath up a bit and did a lizard skin inlay.

Thanks for looking.

Sheaths look great but the knives are exceptional. The file work is awesome, I've been meaning to give that a try but just can't seem to find the time to even finish a knife right now let alone put the time in for the file work. Nice work.

Thanks all. The file work does take some time, but tends to be worth it to my customers. Helps set a custom knife apart.

Is that second knife made from a circular saw blade? What material is the handle made of?

Ha, no Thor, that's not from a circular saw blade. Been a long time since I used mystery metals in my knives. I was confused for a moment, but realized you were keying in on the acid etch pattern I did. I added those sweeping acid etch lines to match the striation in the handle. The handle is stabilized mammoth tooth.

Very interesting! Thank you for the info. That sure is an inspiration.
