Small job...big knife
« on: February 05, 2010, 04:08:00 PM »
Here's the knife from the previous thread.."A cool old knife" ..on it's first field trip. Luckily I got the chance to blood the blade, proving that a BIG knife can still do those small jobs...   :D

Gotta love it!
Thanks, Ron.

When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,

Yea, that's one blade you could probably do a couple of bunnies with before you *had* to sharpen it....

A load of #6 shot from my flintlock smoothbore is what done him in.... A running rabbit with a knife???    :scared:  ...that'd be a lucky throw for sure...    :D

After the skinning job you could split a cord of wood.
