I got bored this afternoon.....Soooooo I made this. Good conversation piece anyways; made it from a cobra skin.
Had one of them (about 4 feet long) drop out of a tree in amongst one of my Thai laborer crews at lunchtime in Singapore. Before I had a chance to get there, they had it chopped into pieces. Damn, I wanted that skin for a hat band. Ah, well.
Next hatband will be paracord, but thanx. I wonder if Valkman could work snakeskin into a knife handle?
I have snake skin, lizard skin, stingray skin, shark hide and a few others that I intend to use for that very reason. I want to use them on my knife handles as well as on the sheaths....as soon as I start hoggin' some more steel that is.
If I had one of those I am afraid my wife might try and shoot it out of my hand, my luck she would miss...................but just the keychain. [elim]
It'd be fun if the wife used stuff like that in sheaths but I think her sheath making days are about over. Her hands hurt too much and when this batch is done I'll start farming them out. Besides, CJ hogged up all the skins!
Yeah...I do have alot of them I wish I had used some of that money spent on skins and bought steel instead.
I don't have any more snake skins with the head intact. But I could make a regular key fob/lanyard out of snake skin for ya if you would like.
Well, what would you like? If you have a knife with a lanyard hole, you could send it to me and I will put a wrist lanyard on it. I did that for Valkman and it turned out nicely.
