Round knives, head knives, leather knives…

I’ve got a few round knives completed and available on my other website at www.GibsonLeather.com. The one in the photo is a drop-point, also known as a French style round or head knife. The blade is convex ground AEB-L stainless heat treated by Bos Heat Treating (part of the Buck Knives operation) up in Post Falls, Idaho. RC-62 Rockwell, cryo-quenched and triple-tempered. The handle scales are DymaLux Walnut with stainless steel Loveless fasteners. It’s 4.25″ point-to-point, and the overall length is 5.75″.

I don’t build a lot of knives–a few here and there. I do not accept advance orders for knives or leather, but only offer what’s complete and ready to ship. For now, shipping is US only, insured via USPS Priority Mail, and satisfaction is guaranteed.

On the bench. Checkbook covers. Wallets.

Thought I’d post a couple pictures of two checkbook covers/wallets I finished up last week. I’ve got five of them available on the other website if you’d like to go over and take a look. The other site is www.GibsonLeather.com

The top one here is a floral in Dark Brown antique, and the one below is a hammered pattern with a half-flower border in Mahogany antique.
