Sometimes you will found hunters really attached to their tools. This hunter has been using a old swiss bayonet as hunting dagger for 20 years . Here’s the dagger before renovation

And after renovation : My friend Maurice has cut the new titanium shaft using Electrical Discharge Machining ( EDM) and restored the dagger:


And I did some engravings with deer

And wild boars in the other side


I think the dagger is going to serve for 20 more years…

I have a short video that shows the engraving, but after the video I have erased the anodization and made a new one with the colours shown in the photographs

Hola Jean...

La verdad que el trabajo que nos has traido está muy bueno... Disfruto mucho de verlo...
Todo la pieza se la ve muy bien, pero me gusta sobre todo el lado donde está el ciervo grabado...
Felicitaciones amigo!!!!!!
Un gran abrazo...

Luis
