Got this a while back From Mike Miller! His interpretation of a bull-nose skinner in 52100 Steel, red liners and sheep-horn scales. He evened sharpened the swedge! Luv it! A couple quick snaps with the ol' I-phone. Just so happens it was a good while before I afforded the opportunity to bloody it! ya! GWB

Really nice knife. You must be feeding those "wild" porkers too much. Did not expect that much fat.

I upgraded my photobucket subscription yesterday. Must have been a glitch somewhere as I could not view any of my 20K images on my photobucket account, nor on any of the sites on which I link pix. Seems to be restored to working order as of now. Quien Sabe, GWB

Great series of pix1 The knife is just the right size and shape, including the sharpened swedge.
I too like the first rifle! But I can't identify it. First thought it was a TCR 87. But the stock looks Germanic. Blaser? Merkel?
The suspense is killin' me!

That is a Merkel K3 "Extrem". It is chambered for the 270 Winchester. Here is a Blaser K95 chambered for the 30-06 Springfield! ya! GWB

Well, I gotta say that you don't just have excellent taste in BLADES! Those two "stalking rifles" are just primo.

Vince had this for sale in the Classifieds the other day. Did not want to pass it up as I have another Damascus knife from Mike. The two just might make a nice set! Now to make a sheath for the pair! ya! GWB

Good looking knife. Given the shape of the blade, is that hard to resharpen?

Cool looking skinners!
I got an order in with Mike for a boning knife and after that, I'll get him to craft me a skinner or semi skinner.
Happy 4th Gents!

Love the knife!
How's the .338 Federale working out for you?
