Top one is damascus with Sambar Deer antler and copper/brass spacers with Damascus pommel and guard, 16" long with 8" of cutting edge. Then the smaller knife with the two Bowies is a saw Blade skinner with brass and red fiber spacers, and a Hitchcock 1890's porcelain piece off of a brass drawer pull. The figure is an old style Eagle with stars and carrying a red banner. The last one is a Bowie made from a Pferd German Made Farriers Rasp. The handle is another deer antler I am thinking it was Mule Deer, dyed it brown and then scuffed it up to make it look old. I made the pommel and the guard from brass stock, the pommel is shaped like a projectile from a large caliper shell with copper and stainless and brass spacers....

Really fine work!  Your antler to metal fit is great.  I love that Damascus blade.  Nicely done.

Luck counts, good or bad.

ty everyone for the kind words, I am the type of person who loves to venture out and try different things, always have. I sit back and think of what i have made over the years, and the thousands of pictures of items I have made, the smiling faces I have seen as they held something I did and i thank God for the talent and the opportunity to be able to do so.
As I grow older, I realize that the art of physically making items is fading slowly into the shadows, I think this is what drives me to keep on going. With one eye, no teeth, bad heart, pea size mind and not a dime in my pocket, I can still enjoy what i do ..... making smiles and creating art.
