Title: learnt a lot on this knife
Post by: ozy clint on December 16, 2011, 05:28:30 am

gday guys. thought i'd show off my lastest knife. had a really good run with this one. learnt heaps from it. got it down to 1/4" thick. starting to get the hang of isolated platforms now. it ended up 3" long, 2 1/2" wide and 1/4" thick. it got hafted to an axis brow tine. obsidian of course.
thanks.

Nice job! Looks like it would feel good in the hand; and it will surely work well for skinning.

That looks like some excellant flaking on that edge.  It ought to work great dressing game.
