Bruckmann

Post by glennbad »

About time I did one of these. I love to collect this brand. They are well made German knives, but they often skimped on cover materials. This knife originally had these horrid plastic/cell covers. Maybe it wasn't celluloid, but they were not smooth, so I was concerned something was going on underneath, so off they came.

Having a couple other types of this pattern in stag, I wanted to see what this one would like like all dressed up in some. I'm really pleased with the end product. Here's a before and after...

Dog gone Glenn.... That is some more BEAUTIFUL stag. Where do you keep getting that wonderful stuff?

AND... A great job of putting it on your knife!

2nd to NONE! Another FIRST CLASS job!

::tu:: ::tu::

Man.... every time I see that ole nasty 2OT look-a-like back there in that shadow box, I just feel soo sorry for you having to look at it all the time. You just need to send it on to me and I can dispose of it for you by putting it in one of my display frames. That way, you won't have to ever look at it again ...... LOL....

Yes indeed...gorgeous gnarly stag and I like the barehead look as well. Very nice, Glenn. ::tu::

I've got a couple of those Bruckmann's. They are very nice knives, but neither looks as good as yours.
Great job, Glenn. ::tu::

Thank you everyone for the kind words!

Mike, guess I'll have to swap the 2OT clone to a different slot, can't have you getting all tore up about it. :lol:
