This has been a one off coming from a picture drawn full size and emailed to me. I had the drawing printed so the print had the same dimension as shown on the email with the blade length being the main dimension to be used to correct the sizing of the print.
The customer had seen a movie and wanted a knife similar to what the character had used in the film which I believe was "The last of the dogmen".
He sent me the mammoth molar scales and these I fixed to G10 liners to keep them from fracturing through drilling and shaping which was done with temporary pins as was the brass bolster with all the shaping and finish polishing when they were removed for the blade to be stone washed. Final assembly meant careful clean-up of any squeezed out epoxy at clamp up then all that remained was to dress off the pins in the scales and peen the brass pin through the brass bolster. The knife is secured in the sheath via the strap and stud.
