Reese got jiggy with it when he made this one, a gorgeous brown bone, hand dyed and feather jigged Dogheads Trapper. The blades and springs are ATS-34. Blades are half stopped and tangs are flush jointed. Closed length is 4.5".
The kind of steady hand and patience it must take to do that kind of work is so admirable. It's such a pleasure to watch him do his thing. Nice steel too.

Maybe they didn't but they might realize it now. Like a very wise old indian once told me, "If it was easy, a bunch of girls would be doin it".
