I painted an elk butt! Behold.

Just finished a seax-type knife. Elk jaw handle with chokecherry wood cap and guard, finished with beeswax/pine pitch. Blade is damascus steel, purchased off Etsy. I sort of keep my eye open for good deals on blades like this. Yes, it's very sharp. I really love chokecherry wood; beautiful stuff and really hard and durable. There's no stain on this; that's the natural color.

@WhistlingBadger Did you buy the blade all ready to go or was there some “ Forged In Fire “ stuff you had to do ? The elk jaw handle is kind of serial killer-esque . Definitely something you don’t see every day .

The blade was ready to go. Just had to trim up the tang a little with the dremel to make it fit the cavity in the jaw, and put a good edge on it. I don't do metalwork; it's something I'd like to learn but who has the time?

Yeah, it's a little too chunky for any kind of fine cutting. Much better for wreaking havoc among one's enemies in a shield wall.

Currently working on making a sheathe from a badger hide I've had lying around for a few years. Stay tuned...

A badger hide ? Why do I hear “ Hi , I’m Larry and this is my brother Daryl and my other brother Daryl “.
