Needsmostuff, the Linder and Black Micarta Rigid are some very nice simple basic design knives. I do like simple business like design, I find beauty in simplistic function with no wasted effort or flashiness. The SS 44spec with the Rigid speaks of that as well. Kim, that oak leaf pattern on the holster speaks to me as well, is it a Barranti?? Trapr Yes, that's a rig and carving from Doc.

There's blood, but not from the knife.

HUNTING CAMP COMBO: GREAT COMBO AROUND A HUNTING CAMP, A S&W 625-6 45 COLT MOUNTAIN GUN AND A BOWEN R1306 STAG HANDLED FOLDER. THE REVOLVER IS HANDY FOR DEFENSE, SNAKES AND OPPORTUNITIES, WHILE THE HEFTY BOWEN IS GREAT WHEN A BIG STEAK IS ON THE MENU. link

1952 Colt Commander that John Harrison worked on, including installing his retro sights, and a Randall #1 inspired knife.

sheep horn grips!!! And matching knife to boot. Who made them?? Grips are HoMade with some desert Big Horn but the knife was Bark River. I work with retired mounts when I can get them, so the horn is VERY dry. As such it gets large internal shrinkage cracks making sizing very difficult. I really wanted these pieces on a Blackhawk, just couldn't stretch them enough. That also means I have to work close to the surface leaving lots of bark that some are not fond of. Here is some more of it on a Bearcat , and some more bearcats with bone and antler. Big Horn and a Browning folder Dog (chew) bone grips and a parker lockhorn knife. Elk and a Linder knife. I absolutely love sheep horn WITH the bark on them. That's why I like yours so much, and Professors as well. You did great work on them, Congratulations on a fantastic job.

Jeff Mitchell Micarta folder. Tim I’ve got a few bases covered, but one that I don’t is a 327. I’ve often thought that I’d look for a 97 some day, but the fact that Bowen and Fishpaw both blessed that one is just too cool. Awesome sets (both)!
