Peter,
I need to touch base with Jim next week. I've asked him to pair a companion knife to a camp axe already in my collection. Special sheath in works I hope. It will be cool if it delivers as planned.

Thanks again guys Here is another one I snagged off of Jim's website, he called it a woodmonk, kind of a cross between a woodcraft and a nessmonk. It reminded me of a Randall Rick Bowles special a little and I like the crown stag. Good stuff coming from Michigan

Perfection Peter! Your knife has a lot of character with the crown stag. I have an order in with Jim and can't wait to see what he turns out... His knives are in a league of their own! Thank you for sharing and enjoy!

Peter,
Congratulations on two gorgeous knives! The Alaskan drop point looks like a great user and I really like the blade profile and crown stag on the Woodmonk. I don't have any knives from James Sr./Treeman, but after seeing yours, that may change.

Another great knife from Jim Behring with sheath by Brian I won't be at Blade this year and I saw this on his website so I jumped on it. Jim's description follows:
"This Treeman J. Behring Handmade Trout & Bird has a hand forged blade just over 4” and beat down to a nice fast cutting thickness of .110 . Made of O1 tool steel. Sharp little bad ass knife for sure ! The stamp is deep and clear . The silver soldered guard is nickel silver. The hidden tang handle is ancient walrus artifact Ivory and has plenty of nice color and is stabilized so it will not crack and last another 10K years. I used a few black spacers with copper and thin brass to accent the Ivory. Handle is ground into the gamblers style with enough length to fit 4 fingers in the swell. OAL is about 8 ½”. The TMK leather shop sheath has some ostrich skin inlay and a heavy stitch with black rivets and snaps"
Very happy with it
Peter

Really, really, really sweet blade, sheath, whole package Peter. You nailed it just before I woulda' pulled the trigger....durn it! Stick it in a rib-eye, stick it in a trout, stick it in your day pack on all of your outings. Heck of a hand made knife & sheath.

I looked at it, too.

Adding onto Peter's thread seemed the correct place for a few pics of my new #5-8" with the new Rocco sheath. I could not be more pleased. Thanks Jim and Rocco!!

Tom, the inlay is tanned beaver tail, dyed black. Very nice. I am a big tanned beaver tail fan as it is all American and a very tough hide and makes a great sheath.

I saw this on Jim's website, and jumped on it. A very cool mini with fossil walrus. Super nice and I am lobbying for a matching mini hatchet. It is a real knife, but I hope I don't get too much grief from Warren and Chief, the big knife guys Photos are the best I can do right now Peter

Mini Hatchet would be great. Perhaps a companion 4"-5" hunter in a piggyback sheath? Just trying to spend your funds.

Hi guys thanks for the nice comments about the mini hunter. I called Jim last week and said a mini hatchet would go great with the mini hunter. Next thing I know I get an email, subject "you asked for it" In the mail today is a complementary mini hatchet. So very cool and sharp too. Big thanks to Jim Behring
Peter

Peter--
Very nice set. Jim does great work.
By the way, I notice that the hatchet was "complementary" to your knife, but it was not "complimentary!"
Too bad.

Wow! 3 "keepers" there Warren - great additions. The vintage camp knife sure is unique... you don't see that handle configuration often and that's the largest Mosher sheath I've seen. Hope you are doing well.

Jay,
That camp knife is a beast. You're right, I can't recall that handle configuration before. Grant commented that the sheath looked like a boat paddle. It's huge!

Recently added this 10 1/2" Fossil Camp Knife to the collection. Love the double skull stamps and the deep hammermarked Studebaker blade. Mosher sheath makes this one somewhat vintage.

So Warren, which Behring/Treeman will you actually use in camp? I know you have some users, please tell.

Camping? Oh haven't thought about anything outdoors yet, it's still winter here. Well even though its set up as a fighter, that Treeman upswept blade would be good for any camp and field skinning chores. A better choice for me would be one of my BMK axe/knife camp combos. Probably the fossil set. It has a larger knife to handle just about anything.

I didn't make it to Blade this year, but Jim and Brian finished a project for me right before the show. I had a piece of FWI for a while and was thinking of what to do with it. I sent a photo to Jim and he had me send it in. I had some ideas, but ended up letting Jim run with it, and he outdid himself. 9.25 brass back hammer mark fighter blade. I did have ideas for the sheath and sent Brian some rock art photos and he outdid him self too. It is big enough that even Chief would like it Peter

Here's another older Treeman with the retired stamp. Nice old Scagel style crotch stag. Don't ever recall seeing any Jack Mosher sheaths with stone pockets.

This one the third in a haul thanks to Miles. Vintage Treeman Woodcraft hunter, nickel silver hilt, fiber and metal spacers, FWI handle. Jack Mosher sheath makes this one rather vintage.

Treeman vintage 8" camp knife, Studebaker, and retired Treeman stamps. Nickel hilt, fiber center spacer. Flawless FWI, not a hint of tapioca. Jack Mosher sheath, zebra inlay makes for a great recent find.

A very vintage J Behring Handmade, old Treeman stamps, Scagel all the way to the crotch stag butt. Simple Mosher plain pouch in horsehide leather. This little 4 1/2" bird and trout could just double as a favorite steak knife.

Great little steak knife and the Mosher sheath to boot. What's not to like?

Placing this post in the right place, hopefully.
Ok... Man, there are some *crazy nice* knives in *THIS* thread. Fantastic works of art.
Here’s a little trout and bird knife I picked up years ago. My son has another one just like it - almost its twin. He never goes hunting or fishing without it. He usually has a rugged looking big orange handle folder in his kit, with gut hook and saw blade, but he always has the Treeman on his belt. The little 3 ¾” blade does almost everything he needs when field dressing. He keeps it in his car the rest of the year. Razor sharp and takes an edge with ease – a simple honing now and then on a kitchen steel will keep it going for months. These knives hold their edge well.
And the little Mosher sheaths are fantastic for everyday carry or throwing in a tackle box or car seat cubby. Especially thick and tough, protect the knives well, but aren’t too heavy. These little knives, in their sheaths, give a natural impression of a “basic tool.”
With its similar top bevel and overall profile, it compares favorably with a Randall #7-4 ½, coming in about 1 1/8” shorter in OAL. But of course, it’s convex ground.
Gary

Great little knife Gary If nothing else, you have a classy steak knife you could take anywhere. Spacer stack is sharp looking.

They say that “great minds” think alike. When I first saw this knife, my first thought was that it would be perfect for cuttn’ up a steak!

Jeep themed camp knife

I had an idea for a Jeep themed camp knife when I take the Jeep to remote areas to camp. I wanted more of a slicer for food preparation than a chopper, as a lot of the places we camp you can't have camp fires so you are prepping your food and cooking on a propane stove. Jim made the knife to complement my Jeep with an orange G10 Ward Gay style handle and Studebaker spring steel with nickel silver hilt and wrist thong. Brian "Rocco" made the sheath with the JK grill and tire tread theme. They both did a super job and I couldn't be happier

Thanks guys for the nice comments. I get these ideas sometimes and it is great to work with craftsmen who can put it into reality. I used it for some food preparation already at home
