New knife made

#1 Post by swami » Sat Oct 29, 2011 8:51 pm

latest hand made knife
Hello,

Have just completed my latest kinfe made from a left over piece of steel from my full size blades, it is the smallest knife at the bottom of picture, Steel is D2 hardened to 60rc and the handle timber is Ringy Rose wood from the Emerald area, this timber is one of the hardest I have used and takes an increadible polish. I have called the knife Micro hunter which will make a great back up to a main knife as well as an excellent skinner/caper.
All knives come with sheaths and are up for sale, if interested send me a PM

Thaks for looking
