Here are two that are going to be prizes at a traditional archery tournament this weekend (if anyone can get there with the weather the way it is).
First is a small 3/32" 440C blade with orange jigged bone handles. I did a little work to the sheath because the knife by itself looked a bit too much like a paring knife to me. If I were doing this one again I'd add either a belt loop or a clip.
The second is a 1/8" D2 blade with bois d'arc handles. The blade has been etched and the handle was heated to give it an aged look. The sheath is rawhide wrapped veg. tanned leather with copper tacks and a few beads and cones. I didn't get all of the tassles in the picture but there are two copper cones with horsehair that you cannot see.
