Here's one that I just finished in Buckeye Burl. For me this wood is slightly more difficult to work with but well worth the effort. ![[Linked Image]](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/Dan308/Knives/160-Buckeye-Hunter-D3_zps2372bdcb.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/Dan308/Knives/160-Buckeye-Hunter-f1_zpsdb01c61d.jpg)

Just curious, but would you share your etching process??
Very nice work.

I have to admit I'm not the best sheath maker. I quickly found out that real leather work is a profession. I do my best though.
Yeah right, that Kate Upton girl is just a swimsuit model too! Nice work.
