Like Doug, I've posted this before but it's still kinda cool. This is a miniature 12-8" Big Bear. It originally carried black micarta but in 1987 Tom Leschorn took it to another level. Tom re-handled this 12-8" mini with Mammoth ivory he got while he was in Alaska. He carved my falcon logo in a relieved ellipse and filled the negative space with gold nuggets he panned himself. The butt cap is pinned and the furniture is carved in Tom's Ivy pattern.
Rick, I haven't seen that posted before, it's beautiful. Just beautiful. So many very special knives out there. It's tough when you want to own every one of them! Or at least hold them for a while. Regards, Doug
