Thank you Randy. Lovin' that Bear Bowie these days.


Chief, I just got off the phone with Tune a few hours ago on his way to Tulsa. "Killin' bugs on the windshield he said" He's sending me the companion to your Musk Ox knife upon his return. Been eyeing that one for some time and held it at Lakeland; awesome piece on MO on it.
I remember your 12-8 Ivory but I wasn't aware you had the MO.
Brothers for sure!

Chief,

The Ivory on that Bear Bowie is awesome; nice to have friends that can help tailor an outcome. The sheath is great too.

Gotta love the Musk-ox (beautiful piece) FCH.

Thanks Tom

A few of us got together and did a 3 knife set a few years back.
That one is my "Armor of GOD" knife. The shop put that on the side of the blade for us.
We all did different handle materials on this one.
The other 2 are the same for each man.
We couldn't agree what to do on the sheathes, we finally got smart and asked Greg at Gutchers & he nailed it for us!

I have said the same thing more than once looking at some of yours!

That is the 1st & only ivory knife that I got that I didn't put a butt plate, cap or anything on. Should have done it more.
All in all that border Patrol handle is really pronounced due to it's size.

Chief,
I'm glad you took that one. Personal color favorite is brass with Musk Ox. However you configure it, hands down a winner.

I forgot I had this picture. I believe Scott took this when the set of knives was made.
As Chief mentioned this was the 3rd knife in the Christian men's series; Armor Of God. Each had a handle configured to our choosing. Each came with the custom Gutcher basket weave sheath with the cross concho. Most if not all of the handle material was Clinton supplied.

Fantastic set of knives and I especially like the sentiments behind it -- faith and friendship. Well done.
