Last of the Christmas orders

[Dwane Oliver]

Well I finally finished all of the X-mas orders up , thought I would show them to you.
First : Set of hunters , big 3/16" 440C 8" OAL , blasted finish , Axis bolsters and stabilized redwood with mosaic and NS pins. Small 1/8" Damasteel SS 5" OAL Redwood bolster and Axis handle with mosaic and NS pins , some filework on each for thumb traction. Ordered for a guy's wife , so I put her name on the spine. She really is a hunting fanatic , I think she'll love them.






Second: 3/16" 440C 8" OAL , NS and dovetailed bolsters and NS pins , (terrible) some wood handles I think I have CRS Syndrom. Blasted finish, full fileworked blade spine . tooled leather sheath.




Third: 3/16" 440C 8" OAL , brass dovetailed bolsters and brass pins , bubbinga handles ( I think the only reason I can remember that one is because it sounds cool " bubinga " ) tooled leather sheath.



Thanks for looking and Merry Christmas to all.

Great work Dwane! As I have come to expect from you, your knives, they make me think of points west--I'm not sure why. So many makers shy away from brass and you use it freely. I like that. I just stepped in from putting brass pins in one that's been on the bench for an eternity.

Great stuff brother! Merry Christmas my friend!

Looks like you been busy, those are going to make great gifts.

Great work. I agree with Andy about the western feel your knives have. Awesome, awesome job.

[Dwane Oliver]

Thanks fellas , I just love the feel of brass , its warmer than other non-ferrous metals. It looks old-timey if thats the right word.

Happy Holidays
