Got my hands on some ultra thick Mammoth Ivory and decided to do a simple, rustic skinner. The OAL is 8 1/2" and the blade is 4 1/4" The pins are carbon arrow shaft with a copper tube and brass pin fitted inside. The spacers are .025 copper and black vulcanized. Blade is a piece of Norm Schenk damascus of 1095 and 15n20.
I used bone Corian along the butt and spine to hide the tang and soften the look.
It feels good so far. Please give me some comments, good or bad. It still needs my logo and a coat of wax but I had to quit playing with it and post some pix.
Thanks,
Steve
