Another knife from a file
« on: April 13, 2007, 09:47:00 PM »
This knife making is addicting!!!  I know the Mods. are getting sick of all the knife post, but I just had to show this off.  It is not great, but I am very pleased with it.  This is only the second knife I have made.  Made from a Nicholson file with a eucalyptus handle, brass pins, and easton 2020 cut off for the lanyard hole.  The sheath was made from spare leather I had and hot waxed.  Mods., I promise the next knife I post will be in a armguard.  That will make it more trad related.

As punishment for this continued knife thread creation you must send me this knife. I'll PM you my address.

Very nicely done.

Good use of old loonie shafts! I like the lines of the sheath as well. Looks to be a good grind that you put on the blade.
Nice craftsmanship, ChiliBowlHunter.   :bigsmyl:      :thumbsup:

Thank you everyone!!

Chili ah,, that sounds good I will have to make a pot now.

Still working on getting a nice grind, but that make be taken care of when I finish my grinding jig.

That pic was taken before final sharpening, so the edges looks a little discontinual.
