Title: Small Hedge Post Drop Point
Post by: KSCATTRAPR on April 13, 2020, 10:30:21 AM

I put this one together last week for my uncle's birthday. Total length is just 6.5". 1095 steel with hedge cut from an old post from the family farm.

Looks Good, I love Osage.  Because knife handles are so small, I try is to find wood with defects and then match the butte of the handle especially with Osage...just a suggestion.

That might be one of my most favorite knives of yours. Looks like it would be a good one to keep in camp! I got the lines close...

Oh yeah, It's one of my most favorite handle materials for sure. I sent some blocks off to get stabilized a couple weeks ago and I can't wait to get them back!
