All About Pocket Knives

I call this one the Hoblow. A hobo with long barlow type bolsters of stainless steel with a satin finish, arrowhead center liners bordered by vines, polished exterior rams horn handles and brass pins.




These hobos were fun projects and I look forward to doing more.

You are KILLING me with that file work All of them are outstanding. If i owned one of those, I think my eyes would cross, from staring at it all day Great work MM.

Kaleb,
you are getting very good at that filework.
Nice job, BTW.

Those are really nice Kaleb, I have never been a big hobo fan but I would love to own that set of three you have pictured..You have me drooling..

Thanks for sharing,

They all look great! Outstanding filework on all. OK, I just got to pick a favorite and it's #3. The vine filework is very nicely done and the arrowhead filework down the center accents the vine very well as the vine accents the arrowhead. They work very well together for being so different. I like Rams horn a lot, though I've had pieces that did not smell so great on the sander.
Last but not least, I'm a sucker for a Barlow, so that long bolster reall does it for me. Great work on all.

I'm not sure which one I like best. Send me all three and I will do a very careful and exhaustive evaluation and let you know which is best. Might take a while. I'm kinda busy. TRUST ME. I'll send them back

Thanks Everyone for your fine commnets.
Nice try Bill

For me it's a tossup between the rams horn and the buffalo horn, I like the buffalo horn, handle shape and short bolsters of that one ,but I like the filework of the rams horn one best, only maybe if I had had an extra set of thick liners to do liner filework on the hoblow! that would have been a time consuming but rewarding project!

GREAT WORK KALEB I HAVE TO GET MY SOW TO YOU FER SOME WERK

I'M SPEECHLESS!

thanks guys, he really likes them, that's what matters most

Wow! Nice work. I like them.
