Default Ron Jr. Scrimshaw Loyd Mcconnell Boot Knife

Loyd Mcconnell of Cactus Custom Knives got a hold of me a little while back and asked if I could do a project for him on a boot knife he was making to take to the Blade show. After asking and being graciously given the permission to delay the next in line projects I accepted Loyd's project. He told me it was an ivory handled knife with an ivory sheath....... I didn't know what to expect but when I opened the package it was a WOW moment, if there was ever a knife meant to be scrimmed this one was it Her face is 3/8" from hairline to chin.

Hope you enjoy!

Ron,
I gotta ask...do you use a modeling agency for your girls or just come up with them in your mind. While it would certainly be more pleasureable to have a live model in your studio, one could still gain a modicum of satisfaction by daydreaming them.
