Really impressive!!
Do you ever use stained antler with red tint

No, but it sounds interesting.
Sambar antlers are generally very dark and I stabilise them with resin prior to use.

I buy the Damascus in a 220x 30x 3mm blank and start from there. Let me know if you'd like one.

I am good on knives, I just wanted to show some appreciation for good work. was just wondering if you forged the blade or made it from a steel bar Damascus blank.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
