01 buffalo horn knife made by my son Nic

Blade 110mm long 26mm wide & 3.25 mm thick 3/4 flat ground heat treated to RC 56/58 and mirror polished, it holds a scarey edge.

the handle is 110mm long very comfortable to hold and clothed with buffalo horn scales with red fibre spacers, the three pins have burgundy epoxy fillers.
I will make a sheath of 3.5mm veg tanned leather to go with the knife either right or left handed with or without dangler ( your preferance)

we are looking for £76 inc postage

Thanks
Ian & Nic

Sold "thanks"

Looks every bit as professional as the knives you make. Looks like you have competition ;)
Well done.

I would be tempted myself but I am expecting one of your knives in the post today!

Fantastic job, how old is Nic and how many knives has he made? I am very impressed and really somebody should buy this knife quick it is a beauty and a bargain.

Hi robin
Nic is 16 It's all his work apart from grinding the bevel and the heat treatment, he's only allowed in the workshop under supervision but he has an artistic eye ( If only I could keep him off the Xbox)

That is nice. I didn't know whether buffalo horn would be a bit too much on a knife handle or not as a complete scaling, but that does look great. I may have to look into getting hold of some when I find the time to continue trying to handle blade blanks!

Hi Ian / Nic

Knife arrived yesterday (saturday).

The pictures dont do it justice.

The sheath is a top piece of kit as well.

Just thinking what to comission from Nic as my next blade :)

Thanks for the superb service and goods.
