Larger than a usual patch knife (size), but will make a great skinner...

I have been eyeing this one off for a while now, local maker, good looking sheath too.

Photo courtesy of the makers website. Here is the description;

...5” blade, hand forged 1095 carbon steel from an old Wiltshire file...front spacer of stabilised California Buckeye Burl, extra-long Rusa stag tip, pinless construction, fringed & beaded period sheath..."

Nice!

Gundy, you won't ever want to try and wear all those knives of yours at once or you'll never be able to walk under the load. :shock: :lol:
