Roger's latest knife....

Roger finished this knife and sheath for my nephew a while before Christmas...but I didn't want to show it till he got to give it to him.
He used an airbrush to spray on the special finish...and then it is baked on. It is a finish used by the Navy Seal team....so it should stand up to a lot of wear. As you can see the blade is approximately 5 inches long.
Roger's name is etched in it but you can only see it at a certain angle.
The handle is wrapped with parachute cord...it does not slip out of the hand.
I think it is one of his best looking knives!

I have been busy with other things...not sure if I am quite ready to get back to blogging, but thought I would give it a shot tonight. My oldest daughter just left today...kind of got the blues about that. Did not get to spend as much time with her as I would have liked...but that is life. I am blessed to have seen her at all.

  10. British woman was just at and I thought I would stop in for a quick visit. It must took a lot of time to do the knife and shield. A good knife comes in handy. We're real picky when it comes to knives.
    My blog is always open and if you get chance stop in for some coffee.
