Grand Canyon themed custom knife pics

[HoosierBuddy]

Hey guys,

A couple of months ago I posted about an idea for a Grand Canyon themed folding knife and I got a lot of great ideas on construction methods. Here's pictures of the first of 4 I'm making. Going to give the other 3 to my sons when we make it down the Bright Angel Trail into the canyon next summer.

The design relies on a Jantz folder kit with desert ironwood and composite turquoise scales. The coin is a silver proof version of the Grand Canyon quarter from the US mint's America the Beautiful series.

Thanks for the advice guys!

Phil

PS ... I'll post more pics tomorrow. Having technical difficulties posting them from my phone.

Outstanding work ! I have a Buck folder done by Brian Yellowhorse and your work reminds me of his.
