blacksmith style/viking neck knife

[KHalverson]

That's very nice work Kevin but I'm having a hard time imagining carving something with it. I can feel the blisters growing. Were these knives used for a specific purpose that didn't involve long use like maybe cutting a string once in a while?

actually the slightly larger version is quite comfortable to use.
I know that they were used as eating utinsils and have been excavated in Viking graves but other than that I couldn't comment on how much and for what else they were used for.

They are actually pretty comfy, and if it is truly sharp, tthe blade does all the work. They we're more of a utility knife though

I'll believe you guys, I've never used one
