Peter,

I think that is their standard configuration CBCK. Polished crown end makes a nice finished look too! Their sheaths like their knives are simple and the black is a nice finishing touch.

All of the ones I had seen had elk with a brass butt cap, but they will what you want within reason. Mine with the ironwood might have been the first with a wood handle

Peter,

All of your Ironwood handles were awesome! Mike and the guys are great craftsmen. They put fingergrips on most of my handles even though they were not standard configuration.

The Smoke Jumper & Hatchet Combo are my favorite, the combo sheath looks great.

When they legalize T-Rex hunting I will be able to use the two 19B Skinners for their intended purpose LOL!

All really great Ruanas in this thread. My only 2 old ones get used whenever possible. The filet lives in the kitchen knife drawer right beside 3 #10's.....between the fishing outings. The Hunter had an identical twin that I sold few years back for some durn reason (like $$???). Wish my pics were better.....oh well.

Can't downsize the Hunter enough. And no, that isn't rust on my filet knife.....whether I should've or not, pickled the blade about 6-7 years ago, not sure when, mainly because my NC Outer Banks fishing trips are 90% from the sand, 1-2 weeks at a time and it or the 5 or 7" Randall live on my side every day, with the little Randall with the tackle box & bait at the truck. Anyway, turned out interesting. Otherwise it's thin-sliced GOD knows how many country hams, turkeys, venison roasts, etc. every holiday.
And.....thanks for looking.

This is my first post on the forum. Thought I'd share a couple of photos of my Junior Bowie
