Thread: Various Knives

This lot away to Texas this morning. First is a #2 Bushcraft with walnut over curve backed buffalo horn on a 3/16 saber ground 1075 blade with heavy jimping and a leather lanyard in a edge stamped closed top sheath.
Next is a pretty little letter opener with a walnut handle on a 1084 blade in a walnut table stand. The handle and uprights of the table stand are from the same piece of walnut to make a continuous visual line.
A pair of Chamois hunters with Tasmanian blackwood over brass curve backed bolsters in edge stamped pouch sheaths. The blades are engraved on both sides.
the last lot are farm tools called hook knives for hay bailing time when there is bunch up of wither the bailing twine or the hay itself. Made from coil springs that were straightened for the purpose.

Was origonally based on a boot knife I made but ground the tip wrong so reconfigured it to this shape and use it myself for a letter opener. Have made another one with resin ivory over buffalo horn in a resin ivory and black ivory table stand. The ivory one was for the husband, a gift from his wife, and now this one is for the wife as a gift from the husband.
