Rufus Cogburn Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Joe Crawford over at cowboyknife.net built this for me. The blade was forged from a hoof file and the handle is buffalo and stag. I can't wait 'til it gets here. That's all, just wanted to brag a little. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll309/drkrm151/Tombstone%20Spinner/IMG_04022.jpg http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll309/drkrm151/Tombstone%20Spinner/IMG_04041.jpg For some reason the "editor" wouldn't let me add the sheath pics to this post. Something about posting more images than is allowed. Go figure. Anyway, If you wanna see the sheath, scroll down. Rufus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus Cogburn Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Matt, I'll let ya spin it at the next match....for a fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus Cogburn Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Thanks for the compliments, but they all go to Joe. I can't say enough about the man. He sent daily updates on how it was coming, sometimes twice a day. Pics of each step in the process and even gave me a lot of choices on materials I wanted for the handle, ring guard and sheath. He's a good'ern. Rufus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Bill Burt Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 That is one nice looking knife! I hope you get it in time to bring it to the next match, I would like to handle it, assuming there's no fee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus Cogburn Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Capt. Bill, good to hear from you and I'm glad you're gonna make it back to shoot with us. I'll give two free spins to accident victims. ;-) It should be here by June 2. He's still working on the Brahma hide sheath. I'll upload pics of that, too, when I get them later today. BTW, Matt, you can earn two free spins, if you're so inclined. Rufus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus Cogburn Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Yeah, if y'all see it next week on the classifieds part of this forum, you'll know what happened.

Jed I. Knight, SASS #36423 Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 That knife is awesome! I have an old file that I got from my grandpa and I’ve always wanted to turn it into a knife. These photos are a great inspiration. That last photo you posted though, of what NOT to do with your knife, that is just plain messed up!! YUCH, EW and OUCH!!
