Decided to try some more Afzelea with spacers and bloody basin jasper. Waiting to see the sunlight so I can take good pics of the file work.

Ask and yee sun shall come out

this style of file wk is on top and bottom of knife.

By the way, just an afterthought, the Afzelea has a tendancy to pick up the black residue off the metal polishing so I decided to use superglue to finish the wood, no problem. Also, tape, tape, tape. That's a trick I learned right here from you guys, thx a million.

Mike, you've done a fantastic job on that knife.
I can tell you without a doubt that is the best looking Rough Rider I have ever seen!
Handles look great and the file work is wonderful.

Mike,

That really looks great.

[pmike5869]

Thx for the generous comments. I have to give credit to Mike Hoover (Redrummd) for the inspiration I got from the Red Leopard Skin jasper knife he made for me, it really meant a lot to get something like that, keeps making me want to do better, bigger.
