Kephart knife from Lucas Forge
« on: September 29, 2020, 05:01:57 PM »
My Vintage Kephart knife came today. It is 9" OA, with a 4.4" blade of 01 steel, Aged oak handle aged brass pins. Very good quality leather sheath.

This is a sweet knife, it would bring a smile to the face of Ole Kephart himself. It will definitely see service this fall.

When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.
Life is like a wet sponge, you gotta squeeze it until you get every drop it has to offer

I'm a HUGE fan of the Kephart knife!!!!

Figured I'd "road test" one before I sprung for a custom.
So, I bought a KaBar Kephart.  Nice quality knife for 100 bucks!

That being said, a custom Kephart is on the horizon!! :thumbsup:
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!

I am a fan of knives from Lucas forge. I bought a large roach belly style (one of the most prominent styles of the colonial era) for my Rendezvous knife. Lucas is a great guy, and his work is excellent. Check him out.
