I have posted pics of her before, but always with rubber grips. Today she is wearing factory grips that I received in the mail from a good friend a few hours ago! It was a wonderful surprise. The grips completely changed the look and feel of the revolver...I like it!

Fine cutter too. Who built it? Sure don't look mass produced.

At first look...I was going to say it was a "Puma". But I don't remember any of their knives (of that style) having a blood groove, and the lanyard hole is in the wrong spot (to be a Puma).

Lanyard hole & smalle handle were my 1st hints that it might be hand made. Looking at the thickness of the hilt made me really think so.

Excuse me & my good friend. We should not have hijacked a good gun post over a fine knife.
Man, would yall look at that beautiful gun. I really am a Ruger lover.

The pictured knife is a gift from my Father......about ten years ago. He purchased (and hunts with) the exact knife in a larger version. It is a Carl Schlieper knife commonly referred to as the "german eye" line of knives. The blade is marked with the "all seeing eye" and the words Trophy Line Pro Hunter Hammered forged #379 Solingen Germany.
You could easily substitute your bic razor with this baby...it gets sharp!
The knife feels very much like a Puma (I have a puma almost exactly the same shape and size). Great observation!

That looks like a great pair to carry in the field. Looks like they'd be very happy snuggled with you along a fence line under a cedar with your trusty favorite rifle waiting for that perfect deer. Hope you get to enjoy them as much as we enjoyed the pic!

Rey,
It's tough to open the mail or cut a seat belt with your 1911...I am sure there are those who claim they can....but a nice Spyderco or Benchmade (or any other folder of your choice) should make its way into your pocket! I have needed my knife many more times than I have my gun....just my opinion. Take care.

Rey,
Before it gets to that point..........just call me and I will mail you a freakin pocket knife!

Just remember that your wife needs you to carry a knife...how else will she get the tags off of her new outfits?
