New Armguard knife and First homemade knife
« on: February 09, 2008, 08:09:00 AM »
3 or 4 weeks ago I saw a post on Trad Gang about armguard knives . About the same time I got a Damascus bladed drop point knife thats only 6 " long overall . So I decided to make up a armguard knife set to see how handy they are - I'm wrapt been searching for an innovation like this for years , works brilliantly .

Following another Trad Gang post about the same time I was inspired to make my first knife from a small hand plane blade . I used a goat horn I had lying about for the handle and buffalo horn for the bolster and end cap .

Thanks for the idea's Fella's . regards Jacko
