** J. Behring Handmade Stag-Stag Copper Alaskan Hammermark Skinner.
This J. Behring Handmade Treeman Alaskan Skinner has a 5 1/2" just a tiny bit shy hand forged 5160 spring steel hollow ground hammer mark blade. I used my Treeman handmade Anvil stamp on it and the 2017 USA date stamp on the back side. Silver soldered copper guard with a nice joint and perfect radius so your thumb can rest against it for good control when cutting and skinning game. The handle is stabilized Red Sambar stag with a heavy duty hidden tang that runs almost to the end of the butt. The spacers are all hand cut and the butt is pinned. The color in this stage is over the top and looks translucent. Nice swell in the handle so it will feel good in just about every hand. OAL is about 10 1/4". Comes in a TMK leather shop handmade horse hide lined pouch sheath made to fit the knife. We will use solid brass rivets at the critical points of the sheath to keep it all to gether for a few hundred years. Great knife that should go into my collection. Knives like this don't come together very often. Something thats hard to plan ,they just happen. Priced to sell and ready to ship today. Thanks, Jim
