    Two more sgians

    Had some time while I was waiting for some special steel to come in so I knocked out a couple of blades while waiting. The first is a "Southwest" sgian made of elk horn and turqiuse. The second has Arctic Curly Burch and Mastodon Ivory @ 10,000 years old. Both have shorter (for me) 3 3/4" blades. Feedback is very welcome, especially with the non-traditional SW Sgian

    As a paleo-nerd, I am fascinated by the Mastadon sgian. Excellent!

    Very nice! The Southwest-style sgian looks like something that would be right up Riverkilt's alley!

    Taygrd, that is the best horn handled sgian I have ever seen and the turquoise mount on the top is superb. I think the white/brown of the horn with the blue adds that zing that so many horn handles are missing (in my opinion)
