Several weeks ago my youngest grandson graduated from Marine Basic training. I am proud of him for making a commitment to his country.

His Dad asked me to make him a knife as a gift for reaching this milestone in his life.

Thanks for looking.

Holly crap!
That's fantastic! Beautiful work. I need to order a couple of your knives once I get Gene Ingram paid off. Tell your grandson I said thanks for his service.

That's awesome Grandpa! You have every right to be proud of your grandson.
Oh goodness... That is beautiful.

Got any laying around for an old Marine?

What a wonderful gift for your grandson, remarkable craftsmanship.

My ten year old grandson is in the "Young Marines" and just today informed me that he wants a Kabar USMC knife and sheath for his 11th birthday. I would rather buy him one like this one but he wants it to look "official."
