Skinner Knife - Bocote Wood Handle - Stainless Steel Blade - Black Leather Sheath

$100

I am a woodworker not a metal smith so I leave the knife blade making to others. My job is to make a beautiful handle for your knife blade. I started with Bocote wood. I attach the wood handle with three concealed brass pins and epoxy glue. I shape and then sand the wood handle silky smooth with up to 1000 grit sand paper. I finish the handle with tung oil which makes the richness of the wood grain and color come out and gives a natural look. Then the handle is buffed with natural waxes. This fixed blade is made commercially by Wood River Knives from 5/32" thick 6A high carbon stainless steel. This high-quality knife is 6" overall length and 2 1/4". A knife you will be proud to show and use for a lifetime, or give as an impressive gift. Google Wood River Knives for technical information about their blades. Handmade knife sheath is included in purchase price. Sheath will slip onto a belt up to 1 3/4" wide. Customer may purchase knife with out sheath just specify preference during proposal process. For shipping in the USA; I use first class mail with delivery tracking. Special arrangements can be made with me for Priority mail, Express mail, mail insurance, or signature confirmation.
