Recently completed loveless drop point hunter.
Nitro v stainless with a satin finish, dyed veg tan and wet moulded leather sheath. The recipient of this knife was a retiring lineman of 50 years which is where the idea to use copper for the guard and pins, the timber is from a transmission pole cross member. Pretty happy fitup and with how this package turned out
