Alright fellas! The vote came to white pine cone, no butt plate- just a pretty crow's beak.
Mission Knife -Ghost Skull hammermark, hollow grind -Copper S-Guard -Horsehide & XL Walrus spacer (dressed up with some copper, black, etc. James is going to make sure she looks good!) -White Pine Cone Butt, Crow's Beak shape
We just forged a new batch over the last two days, so it'll be about a week or so before we get after production on this one.
With a custom like this, sometimes it is best to see the knife before we choose what we're going to do on leather . If you'd rather vote on it now we can put the ideas together, but either way here's a few of our various options to start getting your wheels turning. It's worth noting that this one will not fit in a pouch with the S-guard. Chief had something to chime in here as well.
Feel free to contribute your ideas as well, photos as always are helpful.
Basketweave tooled high-ride, Rowe's Leather. Can be done in any dye
Border tooled, low-ride / drop loop, Warlander Leather, any dye.
Gator or Caiman high-ride, Warlander Leather. We have numerous options for inlays such as ostrich, elephant hide, caiman, shark, sting ray, beaver, and plenty others we could track down if I'm missing something.
