An ulu and a hunter

[Mark Knapp]

I have two to show you, one is obviously a professional shot by our friend Coop. The other is obviously not a professional shot.

This is a drop point hunter with mammoth ivory and musk ox horn. The engraving and the sheath are also by me. Overall length about 9 1/2 inches.

Next is an ulu with musk ox horn for a handle.

Please tell me what you think. Me

That ULU is BEAUTIFUL!!!

 

[Stump Buster]

the Hunter isn't too shabby either.

Gorgeous!

I think they are both incredible! Great sheath too.

 

[betzner]

Always great to see your stuff, Mark - especially those ulus of yours. The musk ox goes with the steel like bacon goes with eggs!

very creative stuff !

 

[herdbull]

I WILL TAKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh...not for sale, my bad

Wonderful work!

 

[SharpByCoop]

Always a challenge, ALWAYS a privilege.

I love how you merged the two materials into the inlay in the sheath. It's almost looks 'natural'.

Engraving mokume? Rare. None better.

WOW! That drop point hunter is absolutely gorgeous!

I WILL TAKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh...not for sale, my bad

Wonderful work!

Yes, I'm afraid none of these are for sale. I have a five year backlog and never get to make anything for sale.

 

[Mark Knapp]

Thank you very much, Coop and everybody.

Mark
They are superb. I like how you have done the ulu, something different than just centering handle or vertical shaft
Thanks for sharing
