Drop Point Hunting Knife

This knife was originally for myself, designed to be a shorter version of this hunting knife. After trying the design, I decided that it was too wide for me and a tad too short. It is 3.25 inches long by 1 inch wide. Although it did work well for skinning. After using this style I came up with the design listed below. The handle is Whitetail Deer Antler with brass bolt style fasteners.  The blade is 1/8 in thick D2.

Finger Knives

I can't believe that it's been over a year since I posted any pictures. Here are a couple of finger knives that are ground from 1/8 inch D2.

The Above knife has Whitetail Deer antler scales and stainless steel pins. The knife below has a bit more of a belly to it and has a handle of green canvas Micarta with stainless steel pins.

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.

Norm's Knives

These were made for a friend of mine (Norm) in Moses Lake. It must have been close to 10 years ago now. I traded them for some tools. I think the blades were from 1/8" thick ATS-34 since that is mostly what I was using around that time. He always wanted a knife with .22 shells for rivets. He noticed that a .22LR shell would slide perfectly into a .22 Magnum shell. So that is what I made for him. The top knife had a multi-colored Diamondwood handle with a full tang. The rivets are spent .22 shells, including the thong hole tube. I made quite a few knives in that design. However it was the only one that had .22 shells for the rivets as well as the thong hole tube. I still prefer to the .22 Magnum shells for the thong hole tubing. It's just cool. The bottom knife had a whitetail antler handle. That was another knife that I made a few of. Whitetail antlers are a little on the small side and the little drop point lends itself well to them.

Boys Hunting Knife

This was made for a friend at work about two years ago. He wanted something to give his nephew for Christmas. The blade was 1/8" thick CPM-S30V and the handle was made from split whitetail deer antler with stainless steel pins. He really liked it.
