Custom Rat Cutlery and Becker Knife Scales

[Marathonman]

Thought I'd show off my recent work! With the lack of availability of ammo, I'm spending more time in my shop than on the range!

Marathon man:

You beat me to it! Not with standing that I have been procrasinating.

That is my BK -2 Campanion still has the artificial grips.
Your other pieces, also, are admirable.
The slotted brass screws appeal to the "backwoodsman" in me.
I like amateur and make use of what you have and keep it simple applications.

Having stated that, your level of skill certainly is not amateurish.
Much better than what I could do.

I looked at the last pic of the IZULA RAT and thought, wow, two large chips in the edge. Then I realized they were bark shavings.

Very nice. Idle hands turned to good use!

They look great. Just have a necker, but some type of full cover thin handle for those would be awesome.

Respect and admiration for your fine craftsmanship.

Been fooling around with my BK 11 for months, the last several of which it has been gathering dust on the workbench.

Note to self, finish the darned thing!

Very well executed! Not a fan of the phillips head screws (if they ain't slots for field maintainability, I'd prefer them to be hex or torx, but that's me!), but the fitting and shaping of the scales is very pleasing and seems well executed. I'd love to have one in hand!

Well done!

Man that cocobola is some beautiful wood! What adhesive did you use to glue the wood to the metal?

Very nice! I really like the full cocobolo on the Izula...that in purple heart on a pink one would be awesome! (for the wife )
