My New Knife

#1 Post by woodie » Tue Oct 25, 2016 9:55 pm

Hi all I just thought I would show you my new knife that I made.
I made the blade from an old parting off blade, the type that has replaceable tips, that got broken, an offcut of brass and a bit of horn from the pet shop.

I like that, made from recycled materials. All it needs now is a nice Sheath.

Here is an update, I made a sheath for the knife this afternoon.

The button is an off cut from the handle.

Excellent woodie, the Sheath flows nicely with the shape of the Knife.
