Neck Knife with Pecan and Wrought Iron
« on: December 05, 2013, 03:56:00 PM »

I have been playing around with a necker design and also wanted to try out some wrought iron. I plan to next make this in a brut de forge style without bolsters.

Cutting edge measure 2.5". Overall it is 6" with stabilized pecan scales and bronze pins. I will soon post this in the classifieds.

That is a sharp looking necker. Pun intended.

Nice.  The grain and color of the pecan works really well with the wrought iron and I love the shape of the end of the tang/handle with the three pins to accent it.  Great job all around.  That's a handy size also.

I like the color, flow, finish, and proportions on that knife.  Very cool!
