Red Impala Mikov

Post by Straydog 5247 »

Built this 'un for a friend , started out as a clip point Mikov kit with front & rear bolsters .....I added red impala scales , did filework on the blade , liners , lever , and backbone ....also added a small NS flat bail ( 'cause I thought it needed it ) ...kinda fancy for a Mikov , but I like it , hope my friend does too ! :D

I think you could give this guy an old butter knife and a stick and he would make something beautiful out of it.
Clean, crisp filework that always seems to match knife and scales. Sufficient bling and yet tasteful. and always
the attention to detail that is his hallmark. Well done!
