Micarta Boning Knife

This boning knife is my attempt at an all-in-one hunting knife. It is to be used for field dressing, skinning and butchering. I am curious to try it out. The blade is five inches long and 1/16 inch thick made from ATS-34. It is stiffer than I expected, but it is light and feels great in the hand. The handle material is Black Paper Micarta with brass bolt style fasteners and a .22 magnum shell.

Micarta Skinning Knife

A friend at work ordered this skinning knife. I just finished it today. It has a D2 blade that is 1/8" thick. The handle material is Black Paper Micarta and is held together with brass bolt style fasteners. The thong hole tubing is a spent .22 magnum shell.

Drop Point Hunter for Donation

Here is a little drop point that I just finished. It will probably be donated to church for a missions fund raising auction. The blade is 3.5 inches long and 1/16" thick ATS-34. Over all length is 7.5 inches. The handle is Whitetail deer antler that I found in in the woods behind the house as a kid. It has brass bolt style fasteners and a .22 magnum shell as the thong hole tube.
