One for my son

As some of you know, my son just graduated from HS , and is also on his way to college in the fall. His 18th birthday happens to be Sunday, so I thought a few weeks back, it would be nice to make something for him. He likes red, so I picked out some nice ruby red from Culpepper. The knife started life as this Frontier...
I even went the extra effort and had his initials engraved on the shield...
I have a few of these Frontiers, and may do another one sometime...

Great job Glenn
Nice touch having it engraved... It's now a very special knife and I'm sure he will cherish it

Glenn you've done a great job once again.
I'm sure that knife will be something your son will treasure for many years to come, and he should.

Thanks guys.
The Frontier line is pretty solid, and makes for some nice projects or users. The one I did was actually a Swinden construction.
This is the second frontier I have done, the first was a lockback.

Camillus made some, Schrade made some and some were of course made by Imperial.
