Just don’t get enough time anymore but sure enjoy it!

Top knife is a slimline in amber bone stag.
Next is a case classic in mammoth
1974 31SAB in real Case green bone from an old fixed blade
The 6165 tested had shrunk and cracked handles and I put some original cracked ice handles that MD Wells had in stock
The WR 6347 is a complete clean and rehandle in bone I dyed and jigged myself to kinda look like old Rogers bone
The three together are in the below order
XX 2345 in bone I jigged and dyed to resemble case green bone
The Birdseye is a USA era 3392 in mammoth
The Schatt Barlow is in mammoth

Those are some gorgeous knives!
What is the reddish colored bone/stag on the first knife? The color on that one is really appealing.
Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful work Shawn! How about the second one and the bottom two - mammoth ivory perhaps? ::tu:: ::tu::

Agree with Jeff on that first knife.
All of them look really good though.

How many years have you been doing this Shawn?

Those are all really beautiful knives. Culpeppers has great handle material. That amber bone stag is a favorite of mine. Do you do custom work for others or just yourself?

I added some description to the original post. Hopefully not too confusing!!
I started doing this as a hobby a couple years ago.
Dale, Gary and Glennbad all gave me great advice that have helped a lot.
