#1306, Mammoth Tusk Hunter...

[Stuart Mitchell]

Inspired by my recent Fragments of Mammoth Tusk build, but definitely a knife in it's very own right!

It gets the same mammoth tusk handle material, stabilised under high pressure and set into resin to form a solid block, the fragments utilised dated at 10,000-40,000 BP.

#1306 however gets a full 6" of blade, that blade hewn from 5mm stock SF100 and it gets a deep hollow grind, the diameter of the grind stone used a little under 5".

Full mirror finish and a tapering, down to around 1mm, tang.

Lovely job!! And knowing who this is destined for I look forward to seeing it in the flesh at some point. New owner will doubtless be very happy!

The carbon fibre pins are such a nice touch, it just melts into the mammoth.
