"Little Natures Revenge." This knife blade is made from 15n20 & 1084 damascus, which I got through Jantz knife supplies. I made the handle and sheath. The Blade specs: Average length= 2-5/8". Widest width: 13/4". Edge distance on circumferences: Approximately 2-5/8". Sharpened by hand. The guard is made from buffalo horn and glued to the blade with 3800 lb per sq. inch epoxy. Body of handle: Ivory (boar tusk), antler and eleven layers of buckskin that I discriminatly thinned by sanding each seperate piece to create the pattern and fill in between the differently shaped, obliquely curved faces of the guard, ivory spacer and deer antler. T are no flat planes in the handle , or between each piece. T are two small inlaid red eyes, (my makers mark) placed in different locations. One is on the butt, and another at the top side of the handle, between the leather and antler. The thong hole is lined with brass. All pieces are glued together with epoxy. In addition the antler is pinned to the tang. Knife thong is buckskin with little double holed copper beads I made, along with a 'horn' bead and porcupine(?) claw. Mistakes/flaws: A very small glue gap at the left side of the eye on the butt. The fit on all the rest of the knifes parts are as perfect as I can make. Sheath liner: Wet formed 8-9 oz. leather with a welt strip, glued with
