Plow steel knife( new sheath pics)
« on: February 28, 2009, 06:35:00 PM »
Well a buddy from work gave me some plow steel from a 1960 John Deere. Very nice steel to work with I think its 1080. Took a edge and seems to be holding it very well. This is going to be my knife I think? The handle is Indian rosewood. Blade is 1/4" thick and 5" long oal is 9.5". I hammered the finger guard and I like it alot. Thanks <><

That is great.  I would say right there in the top five of your knives that are my favorites.  Keep up the great work.
Hopefully you get some warm weather.  Glad all is well.
