Vintage style Antler Neck knife from Past work

This is a custom knife I made going back to 2004 I thought
would be a nice one to share.

This was done with traditional vintage styling, with a forged blade
about 3 1/2" long and a light forge pattern, light patina
finish.

The handle is aged crown Whitetail deer antler that the tang
was drifted back into.  The handle has 2 steel pins.

The sheath was done with aged leather and hand cross
stitching around the outside.

Thank you

Stag Knives! Traditional Hunting Skinner and a shorter price skinner

Below is a recently completed custom knife.  This is one of my
H6 Traditional Hunting Skinner's with a Stag Handle and
brass pins.  Belt sheath is hand stitched.

I also wanted to post a picture of the knife below that was
done as a custom order awhile back.  This is a customized
version of my PRC Frontier Hunter Skinner
or the "Price Skinner"
This version was altered a bit to be at about a 4 inch
blade with some very nice patina aging and tapered forward
clip/swedge.

The handle is antiqued stag, steel pins over brass washers
and also has a lanyard hole at the end.

Thank you
Matt

Hudson Bay Camp Knife with Trade Bead Cross

If you have passed by my blog more than once or my website
you have seen my personal Hudson bay camp knife. If not
I am posting a current picture of it below. It has aged
beautifully and looks as if it has passed through time.
I would also like to mention the trade bead silver cross in
the pictures. This was done for me by a nice gentleman
by the name of Kirk Preti of Good Medicine Beads. It is a
beautiful piece that I will be wearing everyday. The beads
are all original period and the finest I have seen. I will be
using all of his beads on any of the danglers or period pieces
that call for them in the future.
I am posting Kirk’s card below and on my link’s page of my website.

Thank you

everyone would like to see. Leather stacked handle with silver

I left a small amount of forge pattern on the blade and finished
off the handle with a light antiqued look..
