This small antler handled rifleman’s knife was commissioned to be built by Ian Pratt for Jeremiah David Browning. Jeremiah (better known as Jake) Browning received this knife on his 9th birthday (November 7, 2009) from his grandfather, H. David Wright.
The forged blade with Ian’s touchmark is handled with deer antler with a silver pommel cap engraved with “JDB”. The guard displays two silver hearts and is likewise engraved with the Jeremiah’s birthday date, “Nov. 7, 09 AD”. Ian Pratt showed his natural creative ability in making this fitting present for a fine young frontiersman coming of age.
Just what I wanted.
