Knife no 2

#1 Post by metalhead » Tue Jan 20, 2015 5:22 pm

Well I just finished 2nd knife. After my work mates saw my first effort I instantly had an order. My mate wanted an old timer for fishing to replace the one that got pinched by a fishing buddy. The blade is from an old circular sawmill blade. Maybe L6. It sharpened up well and holds a good edge. The handle scale are red ironbark with a tru oil finish. I like it and don't want to give it up. Atl east it went to a good home.
