Below are a couple of recent orders I delivered.  This forged w2 hunter has a 3.5" blade and is 8.25" overall. The handle is desert ironwood with a stainless pin. The guard is etched wrought iron with a stainless spacer.  This 52100 full tang hunter sports elk scales, stainless bolsters and corby bolts that have been hammered after glue up. There are black g10 liners along the tang, a 400 grit belt finish, a 3.5" blade and is 8.25" overall. Thanks for looking, Gabe Ables Knives

If ducks had horns I'd probably be a duck hunter.
I am a horrible deer hunter. Probably the worst. Ever.

Love the lines on the second knife, but would like to see the pins flush with the elk handle.
