First steel knife completed.
« on: December 31, 2013, 04:07:46 pm »
Took some excellent instruction from Khalverson and managed to build this beautiful and stout little huntin knife. I've had a lot of positive feedback from friends and family and everyone seems to want one. Guess I'm gonna have to get some more files now.

 I found the best place to get cheap,good files is at a pawnshop. Nice job, there ain't nothing like unzipping a deer you killed with a knife that you made.

Yep, Thad, same thing I was thinking while building this.  :laugh:

You are right tallpine, I plan to get many years of use from this knife.

Thank you Cip and Ryan.
