| Latest knife " Sancho "
Just finished this one up for a guy. I decided to name it Sancho....he doesn't excel at any one thing , but is good at everything.....and is sexy enough to take your wife. 9.5" OAL with a 5" damascus blade 2" deep. Damascus bolsters with Buffalo Horn handles that bolt on. Leather sheath tooled by me as well. The handle and bolsters are Dovetailed at their meeting point , also my fileworked spine for thumb grip. The balance point on this knife is right where your index finger sets. The skull crusher/ emergency window breaker works great. I popped a side window in a 85 Chevy PU like it was ice. Fragged my arm with glass , a few small cuts , lol. On to the pictures. Ohh , I better get those fingerprints off the handle before I ship it.....never know what he might do with it. Comments are always welcome. |

Thanks guys. I love it when the customer gives me the freedom to make a cool knife. It lets my twisted mind run free. The name is funny: Alot of my friends and I have a saying " call home and make sure Sancho gone before you get there " |

| Haha....yeah. I used to work with a lady who dated a man she called "sancho"....then one day she called him something else. I asked why the two names....she said one was his title. |

I kept saying to myself, I need to get one of these. Well, everyone around here is bugging me about Christmas and Birthday presents. SO, are you still making these? Might have to get one on order, hoping to have for my birthday at the end of January. |
