    New knife from friend at deer camp.

    A friend from deer camp, Johnny, and I both dabble in making knives. This weekend he brought one to show off, then after everyone looked it over, I tried to hand it back to him he said it's your's.

    Nice! You have a good friend. I love a drop point knife.

    The handle rivets are pretty especially the center rivet. Nice knife!

    Good looking knife.

    It should be handier than a extra pocket.

    Very nice! What is that handle material called? I've seen it before but can't place it. I'm a fan of drop points also, beginning with an Old Timer Sharp Finger long,long ago.

    Good friend. Nice knife. Did he build the sheath as well? If so he is a man of many talents. The two of you have started something good. You will have to have something for him next season.

    Thanks for the laugh. My wife's family was/is so superstitious, that was one of their standards!

    He did not make the sheath, but it's a perfect fit.
    I broke it in a couple of days ago. That broad blade skins like a dream. I then washed it with hot soapy water, thoroughly dried it and applied some CLP. I'd hate to have it rust or get tarnished.
