Thread: Show me your knives

@Shearer yeah some cool bit in there. Always used to collect them out of the firewood bin. Wish I had started years earlier. If anyone wants better photos let me know.

i would be keen on some .not sure where you are if in the south island we could organize a knife build.
cheers john

I would also be interested in some of that wood if you are anywhere near Auckland, and I could help you with a knife build, my set up would be a little cramped with two people but I’m sure we could manage.

Small antler handle knife was made by a chap in Levin (Manakau) - it is my main hunting knife now as it usually sits in bum bag. Hard to sharpen if let go too long.

The Svord was purchased new in 1983 - probably one of the earlier knives by him (can't remember his name) Had an a lot of use doing home kill cattle in its 1st couple of years - we got $20 + hide (45-90$ at that time) Great knife and holds a keen edge

Here is one I was given as a present. But I'll never use the bloody thingg as its to nice. Bloody sharp tough!!
Its made with 52100 steel and Sambar antler handle.

DLT were doing a run out special on BRK Blackwater II's in Elmax so decided to pull the trigger on a ivory micarta to match the Scandi

She’s a bit flash for cutting open bailage Ryan.
Hope things settle down for you, so you can get in a hunt soon.

Had this beauty made for me by @Shelley from a piece of antler I picked up in Fiordland.

Gave it a good workout yesterday breaking down the three Red yearlings I shot.
