This "Nanner" is based on the HTT pattern but with a single blade and has a federal shield instead of a bullet. Dyed and jigged by Reese, the camel bone is much harder and doesn't take dye when treated the same as the standard cattle bone that he uses. The same dye was used as he normally would use to produce the nice chocolate color we all like. Blade and spring is D-2 and is stamped "1".
I love this pattern -- though I think I would want a longer shield for aesthetic balance - something like a double bomb shield would be perfect. I felt the same way about the gorgeous deeper brown bone version that's been shown here before - beautiful but just a little "under-shielded" with the federal shield.

Good Point...... personally I think that frame screams for a bullet shield..
It's great to see Another great knife out of the Wilfred Works! That camel looks pretty cool! Heck, either with the Fed. shield or a longer double bomb..it would look great in My Pocket!
