Finished up some mules I've had mocked up for a bit.
Top to bottom: my PMA11 burlap micarta and highlighter yellow G10, 15v Ringed Gidgee (thanks Andy!) Teal G10, and 4v with woodchuck cast
They are beautiful…



More pictures of that Ringed Gidgee one….

Is that the piece I gave you :O Man that was off the wrong pile :'( :'(
The very one and thank you! Here's a pic with the hickory nuts I stepped on stepping out back.🐿🐿

Much appreciated fellas! Gonna have to gather the entire flock for a family photo now that 6 mules have been finished in the last few months.

Finally finished up my 1st T-15 mule. Raffir noble brass and bronze. Went with a skinnier grip compared to most of my others. Generally like them a little thicker but didn't want it to be the same as an earlier Raffir mule I did.

As a fan of skinny grips myself, I heartily approve of this beautiful raffir-mule!

Been making a few kitchen and hunting knives lately, so have been going slow on the Mules….This one is getting a bit of work every now and then…in between builds.

Still a bit rough but will sand it more once I get the glow resin in the holes…

Thank you for the welcomes 😁 , i will endeavor to learn how to upload via an external source.
Last few months have been a bit of revival for me spyderco wise , picked up a rock jumper , a cpm spy 27 , and a pm2 cruwear . Kind of helped me compartmentalize my steel habit . Going to check off my spyderco desires first .However I have just learnt of a black lip pearl micro dyad and cannot find 1 available 🙏🏻

Another beauty…you’re killing me with these.

Got another day of changing out some cracked floor boards at home and your cracking out knives :sad-but-relieved
