New Wild Goo collaboration

One

Banned
Blade by yours truly.

All the rest by “Wild Rose”, AKA Chuck Burrows. Chuck also did the file work on the blade.

GREAT collaboration Tai !

Curious if it's a representation of a historical blade profile ?

It's sure a cool one either way

that is beautiful. your collaborations with chuck often remind me that sole authorship isn't always the way to go.
 
great looking blade , Tai I like those tribal pieces , As I like anything american Indian , have big collection of stone artifacts. I have been compared to you often by some unnamed Mods , You must be a great dude . Bubba-san :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
 
That's wild, Goo! :D Not at all the blade shape I was thinking of when I just say the pic of it in the sheath. Scroll down a bit and, "Whoa!"
 
Your collaborations with Wild Rose are true works of art. I haven't seen any piece that I wouldn't love to have. Maybe someday when the finances pick back up.

Regards Keith
 
Beautiful collaboration! Is that a goo-ish ferrule I see?

Dan - yes they are ferrules but I made them out of copper end caps (less hammering). Perhaps not so oddly emough I started doing this handle at the same time as Tai started his posts on the ferrules - I hadn't seen his posts so it was a matter of "great minds" on the same wave length...........
 
GREAT collaboration Tai !

Thanks!

I guess you could think of these as “Contemporary American Frontier” or "Neo-Tribal“,… or a fusion of the two… I’ve never seen anything exactly like it before, either way.

Here’s another "Neo-Wild Goo".

regarding the blades shape: As Tai noted it's not an exact copy of an origina but many originals were similarly recurve shaped - here's a couple of examples of 19th Century originals:

This is from New Mexicao - circa 1840-50's

This one is French circa 1850's
