Well rifle season starts next Saturday. Looking forward to spending time in deer camp and cooler weather. It's been so dry and hot that we've not had but one campfire in the 7 months or so. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/YOJLdzH.png) Menefee Made Loveless Hunter.

great thread! I really like that Olt Buffalo Skinner. I just looked him up. Looks like his shop is in Grand Haven Michigan? I was stationed there about 20 years ago when I was in the Coast Guard. Was that knife a custom order?

Was that knife a custom order? Tim is an old Special Forces guy from the 'Nam era. He has a number of blade patterns and to my knowledge makes knifes to order based on those patterns in a different steel each run. He posts as "MichiganRoadKill on 24hr campfire, mostly in the knife/blade forum there. I've also asked him to do several "one-off" knives. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/9RlYPYw.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/9bkVzOC.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/Pvgpsaf.png) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/W1D8RJs.png) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/iF3sgJM.png) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/gPthbt3.png) Here is a re-creation that Tim did of the KOA "Muskrat". https://www.knivesofalaska.com/Store/muskrat/muskrat---suregrip![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/8AaFs5s.png) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/Mlgr5Zh.png) IIRC I spoke with four different custom makers of my acquaintance and he was the only one that cared enough to try. I am a fan of Buffalo horn. I've quite a few knives from different makers. I'm a user/colletor and muddy boar's play heck on knife edges. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/gz49TT1.png) I'd say the edge retention on his blades are on par with the best. ya! GWB

thank you for the great reply! He does some really outstanding work. I'm going to reach out to him. The Muskrat re-pro is really cool. I've used the KOA one to skin out a few capes. Great knife, great design. I'm thinking I need a buffalo horn handled knife.
thanks again.

I personally prefer high carbon steel over stainless of any kind. I got a bunch of industrial hacksaw blades some years back. Hard to sharpen, takes work to hone, and has to be kept clean and dry to keep from rusting. But, it takes and holds an edge better than any stainless.
However, when my wife wanted new steak knives, the blades came from Jantz and I added craft wood handles with brass pins. I’m not good at serrating.
Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.
Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley, Rancher Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP

I do believe his Constitutional Conservatism and Theocentric world-views in regards to life and liberty were anathema to WalterHog.

Geedub, I sure am impressed with the variety of beers you come up with. I am dismayed by the limited bottlings available in my neck o' the woods.
Pearville ... Pearville. Hmmm. Would that be near Austonio?

Nah', its a sleepy bedroom community south of a burg named after Genr'l Sam. It seems craft beer is a big thingy these days and if you are anywhere near a thriving me-tropolis one can break the bank if he should care to inquisitively imbibe. If you want to be impressed, check out Tasunkawitko's Facebook Page. That guy lives beer! BTW, you should definitely make it to the Shilen Swap meet. You will have a ball and maybe also have an opportunity to break the bank. Butch Lambert and probably a few other AR guys will be in attendance. I plan to have a table unless providentially hindered. I'll bring some knives, rifles ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/fvTniOT.png) (HInt!) and ammo. Best, GWB PS: Maybe a couple'a beers to boot! ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/JJkZHz2.jpg)

Thanks Geedub. That Shilen swap meet is moving up my list of priorities. As you might recall, I hail from Oregon, where the microbrew scene has been out of control for decades now. I had to fly home twice in October, once for a wedding and once for a funeral, and a few bottles o' this wonderful dark ale took some of the sting out of it -- this and sitting by a fire petting dogs. ![[Linked Image]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/b356/BillOregon/image_50453505_(1).jpeg)

Geedub, do you do your own leatherwork? Noticed the photo with the hammer and punches. My guess is that there is no shortage of free-range pork at your house ...

As with many of the custom knives I've been fortunate enough to acquire, there is a back story on that one. It is a Quillon Dagger in forged "Leaf Pattern Damascus". It is the capstone of my Leaf Pattern trio. Mike Williams ABS Master Smith is the maker. Details to follow. Best, GWB

Beautiful knife. What is handle made of? Thank you sir! Chances are you are not inquiring in regards to the Bill Moran, so...... The knife before that is one of Arno Bernard's creations. He is a South African maker. I've known of him for 20 years. I could not pass it up. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/M1osdqi.png) He calls it the "Marabu" . N690 steel and Kudu bone scales. ya!

Great posts, great knives and great beers GWB. I just picked up a custom boning knife and a filleting knife at a show in Edmonton. Had to leave them with my son for now as i was visiting and didn't have any checked baggage for the flight. He'll bring them home at Christmas. Should have taken some pics i suppose. The filleting knife is made by a fourth generation smith and the boning knife by a second generation smith. Boning knife is done in AEBL with carbon fiber and the filleting knife is CPM 154 with maple.
Man that is a dark looking deer. Chocolate bone on top - very nice.

Like many of you I spend a bit of time reading interesting threads on various forums from across our great land. There is a thread on the "Hide" where a Vietnam era photo was posted and the actual soldier in that photo just happened to be a member of the Hide and identified himself in the photo. There have now been several years worth of back and forth stories and photos shared on that thread. Has to be considered the coolest forum thread ever... but this one is an easy 2nd. And hands down the best "knife" thread of all time. Thanks for sharing Geedubya.

Gent's I've had fun with this thread. Perhaps someone could start a "used knives" thread and show how they use their knives/knives in use. Anywho, Today I turned 72 yrs. In keeping with this thread....... ![[Linked Image]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/albums/e129/glenn1221/Blades/.highres/IMG_9991.1_zpsfftxgcsi.jpg) Most everyone can remember being young. Not all get to experience being able to remember being old! This old fart sez' thanks for the kind sentiments and words of encouragement. Best, GWB

i tried a porter; become my favorite. I'm a malt guy, enjoy flavor and high ABV beers that are not too expensive. Porters, Dopplebocks, Dunkels & Stouts. Do not know if there is a Total Wine in Lubbock or there abouts. If so you might google Total Wine a do a search for Porter Beers. They list quite a few, Enjoy! GWB

Well much as i try to be a beer guy i always end up with whiskey. Recently acquired Ed Storch filleting knife. Ed is about my age (not old in our own minds but actually pretty close to it - 60ish) and is a 4th generation smith living in the hinterlands of Alberta. ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53426064289_01c7c55635_k.jpg) Feel like there are lot of good custom skinning and dressing knives on the market but have had a hard time finding a fishing knife. Think this one is going to fit the bill. Will let you know as i will be ice fishing most weekends from now until mid April And belated happy birthday! I am not the knife collector you are but there is something almost holy about well crafted steel. I haven't taken perhaps as many pics as i should have but your remark about used knives brought back memories. I have one particular knife that i have batoned through many many a bear sternum. Had to re-profile it once as in my youger years i tended to abuse my blades more than they deserved. But that too was actually a good thing as learning how to do that and bringing a "broken" blade back to life was quite enjoyable.

Good stuff guy!
That knife seems it could do double duty as a "boner" as well as a filet knife.

Classic blade shape, Geedub. I had to look up Steller's sea cow. That bone is said to be the most dense of all mammals. Bet it has some real heft. Sierra Nevada Narwhal, you say?

Let's see,,,,,,,,,,,, This guy has been terrorizing my pens/feeders for the last two seasons. This is a South African Zebu Bull. It is not a Brahma. Two cows make up his harem. He is mean and feral. No brand. As such he is an exotic. Must have escaped from a game ranch. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/xQZmgZCS/Screen-Shot-2024-03-31-at-8-06-57-PM.png) Last pix until recently was the 15th of November, 2023. He showed back up the middle of last month. I decided I had had enough So a plan was formed. Here was a South African critter. I've a S X S double rifle chambered for the 405 Winchester. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/bPV5GmVH/Screen-Shot-2024-03-01-at-9-06-59-PM.png) So I asked myself, WWTD (What would Teddy do?) Quien Sabe, ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/cZt0wjn5/Screen-Shot-2024-04-05-at-3-09-34-PM.png) I know what I did. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/bpY29kQ5/Screen-Shot-2024-04-05-at-3-30-12-PM.png) By now you may be wondering what this has to do with Beer or Knives....... ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/R4sbCSj0/Screen-Shot-2024-04-06-at-5-25-55-AM.png) When I first started collecting knives I had to have a Puma White Hunter. IIRC I got this White Hunter some thity years ago. It is one of the good ones. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/TRXWNMJP/Screen-Shot-2024-04-07-at-9-20-30-PM.png) I recently have acquired two 'Marabu's" by South African maker Arno Bernard. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/HpGQG7dd/Screen-Shot-2024-04-07-at-9-20-20-PM.png) The one on the left has warthog tusk scales. The one on the right is Kudu bone. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/tpYPYzg9/Screen-Shot-2024-04-07-at-9-19-50-PM.png) I cut twelve +/-1 lb. steaks out of one backstrap for bacon wrapped filets. The other I cut into three portions for roasts or jerky. At 72, I'll probably never make it to Africa, but I luv it when a plan comes together........ Especially with a Texas Twist! ya! GWB

Dang, Geedubya, well done! That big boy had some beef on him. There's someone else out there in our shared orbit with a double in .405. Trying to think. A couple of Real Ale Brewing Axis IPAs might dislodge the data ... Long day today. Sweetwater to Fritzville to Comanche (Shiloh Cemetery) and then home. Grabbed a pork belly at HEB to try my hand at home made bacon.

Mighty fine, let us know how it turns out. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/LRc4cmPP/Screen-Shot-2024-04-16-at-7-35-55-PM.png) Hard to beat home made bacon if done correctly. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/ss5fybPN/Screen-Shot-2024-04-16-at-7-35-32-PM.png) This pork belly was wet aged 7 days, turning once per 24hrs., then smoked with cherry and hickory. ya!

Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the pursuit of evil.

Great story, nice knifes and awesome riffle. I believe as you alluded to the 405 was maybe Teddy's favorite safari caliber.
