This is a little neck knife I put together for a friend. Josh has a plasma cutter so I asked him if he would cut out some trade point and knife blanks for me. In return I made this for Josh.
The blade is cold rolled steel and is hafted into the antler tip handle with epoxy and added a pin to strengthen it. It has a sinew wrap that I set in TBIII. The sheath is hand stitched and made from a scrap of leather with a leather boot lace lanyard.

That's a nice piece. Did you have to temper the blade or did you just grind an edge on it?

Kerry, if things go the way I plan I will have a few at the Classic this coming spring. I'm sure we can come up with a trade!!!
Looper, All I did was clean up the shape on my belt sander and put the edge on with a file. I did dip it in water as I cleaned it up to keep it from overheating. I don't think the plasma cutter heats the metal too much while cutting.
Thanks everyone. It was a fun project to do and I'm sure I will make more when I get more blades from Josh.
