Cocobolo Semi- Skinner

Below is another Semi-Skinner. This one has Cocobolo scales. I ground this blade very thin and since I was curious about its cutting ability (which I thought would be good), I decided to sharpen it before I made its sheath (which I normally don't do). I just used it to slice a piece of 8-9 oz. leather and it was like I was slicing thorough a piece of paper! Now, I just have to be very careful as I craft its sheath.

THIS KNIFE IS SOLD.

Here are a couple more websites I enjoy:

I am signed up for Toby's newsletter and enjoy the updates, especially the updates on Moss the Delinquent Labrador.

I really like single shot rifles. I blame this, as well as my fondness for beer, cheese, and sausage on my German heritage.



Lastly, I have had a desire to build a 35 Whelen on a Mauser action for some time. If anyone has a 98 Mauser action that hasn't been cobbled up (drilled, ground, otherwise altered), I would be interested in trading some knife work.
