My latest Knife.
« on: January 23, 2009, 01:20:00 AM »
This is a hand forged knife with a mustard finish.  Maple handle, 1095 steel guard with a blacktail deer crown buttcap.

Thanks for looking.

ps. I gave the blade a mustard finish to make it look old.

Nice knife! Prarieboy...A mustard finsih is when you coat a carbon blade in mustard and let it sit for awhile. When you wash it of it usually has developed a dark patina(color) to the blade.
