Forge Finished Butcher
« on: September 01, 2014, 09:05:00 AM »
I've been trying to work on my forging to get as close to finished shape as possible.  Also playing with the "forge finish" look. Still a lot more to learn!

6" butcher pattern, 1084 steel, sheep horn grips with peened copper pins.

That should serve very well and looks good to boot.
