    Well yall, I know this one would have been a lot better for our ol score card but I finally caught up to my main target buck of 3 years. It’s been a hell of a chase and I’m kinda sad it’s over with. IMG_2970.jpeg IMG_2969.jpeg IMG_2968.jpeg

    Another knife project. Decided to try something with G10 Ultrex scales and G10 liners. This one turned out way nicer than the others. I even decided to play around with Kydex and made a sheath for it, have some final sanding and rivets to press in and it is all done.

    Thanks! It's a real handy size. (6 1/4" OAL) with 2 3/4" blade. I prefer this size for cleaning game and skinning.

    Phew I too went Mia but I’m popping back in. I have this weekend and I’m actually taking my bow out here in Illinois. My target buck is still alive and showed himself last week.

    I have never shot a buck in January but would love to this weekend.

    I’ve been trapping hard. Before all this weather came in a week ago I am up to 50 raccoons 35 opossum 5 skunk and 1 coyote.

    Well my late season plans had a series of wrenches thrown into them and I never made it back out. Season in MI ended on Sunday for late antlerless. Good luck to you guys still getting out! Hopefully everything settles down for a while and I can enjoy some ice this winter, first time in three years we have had local ice I feel comfortable going out on.

    Thats a good looking knife! Definitely my preferred size as well for everything between the field and getting the boned out meat on a cutting board. I've been playing around with a few myself, trying to run the scales on my cnc router in between jobs, so far success is limited... Biggest hiccup is getting the holes to line up right, I couldn't find dimensions or a pattern for them so I have been going off a picture and known dimensions of the holes. Hopefully this next run ends up being the winner.

    Man I'd love to try out some CNC stuff! I'm sure once you get it programmed for the exact scales you need, you'll knock em out fast!
