My Knives & Other Weapons

Being sick has given me time to work on my knife making skills. My knapping is improving since I bought a jig and some Ishi sticks.

Here's an obsidian blade mounted in caribou

Next I have 3 knives mounted in coyote bone (I like working with the jaws). The bottom knife is dalcite mounted in mule deer with a stain

Finally, I have knives mounted in elk. Can you see the Damascus blade?

Yes. What's the story with the damascus blade?

They all look nice, although that one jaw doesn't look comfortable to hold.

Wow, those are remarkable! Works of art.

do you sell those or do you just make them to collect them...

Beautiful, sarge. If I had anything like spare time I'd love to learn knapping.

Very nice, Sarge, well done.

I signed up for a knapping course.
The good news is I passed with flying colors.
The bad news is I misspelled knapping. :zzz:

I glanced at this thread title and actually thought it read:

My Knives and Other Womens

I did. My brain is tired and sad and hallucinating. But at least it's hallucinating funny stuff.

Yo! Where all the sharp women at?

Gravdigr 03-11-2013 05:06 PM

Those are all pretty cool, Sarge.

Good job!

Big Sarge 03-11-2013 05:27 PM

Thanks. I mainly trade them for guns or other knives. Making them is a form of therapy with my tremors. The Damascus blade I traded for and made a patch knife. Coyote jaws are actually very comfortable

Griff 03-11-2013 07:23 PM

Very cool Sarge!

classicman 03-11-2013 07:30 PM

Those are beautiful Sarge.

Very well done. Talent? you got it!
