AVAILABLE Blades... RainShadow Custom Knives!

[KillBilly]

Gigpig, I got a good look at your blade. I would definately put that knife to use in the field and I believe I would finish it like he did #31

Purpleheart and Black Micarta scales, Hickory and Silver Nickle pins, White Carbon Spacers.




There's  a ton of more decorative and eye popping grips Steve is capable of putting together. This would be my choice for this one.
You ask.. MHO

Enjoy your new knife.. I can't seem to get enough of them.

[GigPig]

You and I have similar tastes KillBilly    I have two of them in the works, hopefully three if Steve modifies one of them in the near future    As far as "I", I think I like what he did with "ST14"-Desert Ironwood, black carbon spacers, nickle pins.  I think I like the wood to cover the entire surface, I not that creative, simple  Certainly open for any ideas!

Here's my Pride

[GigPig]

My only worry is that I will never use it    They are just too fancy to get dirty.  With any luck I'll get to break it out and post pics of it in use 

[KillBilly]

The three largest one in the middle I have not used yet. the other 4 have been used and found to be very sharp and functional.

Ok...



HERE'S AN UPDATE OF WHAT I HAVE AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW....






 



Feel free to contact me for more info!



Thanks!

The flare off that ax blade is priceless.  Good looking blades there BTW.

Im interested in     E   

[rainshadow1]

rougheye, E is a Butchering knife, 3" cutting edge, 8" overall. I ground it to replicate the blade I've seen many times handled almost exclusively by professional butchers and furriers. Short, sweet, and to the point! The grip is my signature palm swell. 3/16th ATS34 stainless.

Here's Blade "W" aka Damascus #2, and a custom ordered set of Fancy Necker Knives....



"W" built with Moose Antler, Buffalo Horn, silver pins, and an acrylic inlay. It's sheathed with a custom checker pattered decorated sheath with the form fitted kydex back and a snap closure over the finger hook.




 




 




 




 









The Necker Knives, built with customer supplied Antler, Turquois, and Silver Pins. Blast finished S30V Stainless, polished grips, and custom inlayed Crown carvings special requested by the buyers. These will also be sheathed with the Kydex/Leather combination sheath, but the design will work for lanyard as well as belt carry.

Do you have any examples of an Ulu you have done? I collect them, what would K cost with a nice bone handle of some sort? You can PM me with details if you want...

P.S. when I look at your knifes I'm really excited to see how the one you are building for me turns out. I cant wait to get it but at the same time take your time. You cant rush art You been playing around with any track carvings?

[rainshadow1]

I haven't practiced the track yet. I've done a Wolf track and the crown recently. I'm going to do another Bison Howler with Grizzly tracks on it, so that'll be good practice too, but yours is gonna be smaller work, more like the crowns.

I have an Ulu done, it's not special, just production stainless with a quilted Sapele grip. (Available for $40) The one pictured is also production stainless. I haven't ground my own Ulu yet. When I grind my own I'll use it for an opportunity to scrimshaw, as the grip is a larger block than most knives.

Okay Steve, I have been looking at all of these great knives and have until now resisted even asking about one.  I keep opening this thread and looking at the knife that Killbilly posed #31 at the top of page 9 and I have to know what it would cost for the same knife blade (size, shape, etc.) with a lighter colored wood handle.  I like this one but don't want to copy everything the same.  Can you send me a PM with suggestions and an appprox. price

[rainshadow1]

Coming at ya', Y.D.

Y.D. you won't be sorry if you purchase one of his knives. As far as copying, don't worry.. because each of his knives is created seperately they will not be clones. Each will have their own character. Steve knows his stuff and will definately put a big smile on your face.
