Here is another set by me (knife) and John Cohea (sheath). I actually intended to keep this one for myself but, there was this fella in Arkansas that really wanted her so......

This Clip-point Hunter has a 5 1/2" edge-quenched blade forged from W1 high carbon steel with acid-washed, forge-marked flats and an etched hamon. The guard and spacer are "wagon wheel" wrought iron. The coffin-style handle is A-grade Curly Maple with a fullered Bone spacer, etched/high carbon steel set pins and decorative copper pins. This knife has an overall length of 10 1/2" and comes with a fancy raw-hide "cross-draw" sheath with copper accents, trade beads, horse hair cones
and a snake skin belt loop by John Cohea.
 
I would like to add that I used this knife, along with another one that I made, in the filming of my latest video"Advanced Rawhide Sheath Constuction",due out in April!
 
Dang! That is one bad muther. Well done by both craftsmen. Can't wait for the new video featuring that badboy.
