    A little while ago a forum member did me a big favor and was very generous. This knife is returning the favor, early shape Boomslang hunter model.
    14c28n stainless , full grind with G10 liners and handle scales combined with a dyed and laminated wood block.. He once again confirmed that on this forum there are some truly top people.Name:  Laminated Boomslang.jpg

    And with the extra leather taken off, just waxing the leather now before a final clean up, never used a leather handled knife before, it feels amazing in the hand, warm and grippy at the same time.

    Trailing point knife

    Well, this one has been awhile in the line up. I have mostly had trailing point knifes all my life! from scouts to now and I like the design.
    After seeing the others made by case, bark River, William's and schrade etc, they all had the blade a little small and the choice of steel wasn't what I wanted! except for Bark River could of gone with that steel but for the blade, as it wasn't in the line up.
    There was only one choice, get one made and the steel is elmax, also the sheath has to points of attachment cross draw and what I'll call normal belt loop,the handle is in white corian.

    I bought a knife kit from these guys

    https://www.brisa.fi/catalog/categor...plies/id/2058/

    It arrived in record time and I am very happy with the quality of it. The sheath in the kit is pretty shitty compared to the quality of the rest of it. So buy a couple of sheets of kydex while you are there and make your own.
