NESSMUK KNIFE "NEW PIC TODAY!" PG2
« on: January 19, 2008, 09:05:00 AM »
Well i always kinda liked these knives. So I made  a few. This one I keep. I really like this knife. The sheath is kinda period with the knife. No tooling all freehand. So anyone else like nessmuk knives?<><

That is really sweet. I found a little background info on them.

Here is a neat build along from Old Hickory skinning knives.

Now that is one sweet knife, Frank, and the sheath as well. Pretty true to form, I'd say. Also enjoyed the read about ol' Nessmuk, 42WLA - thanks.

Lots of interest in Nessmuk style blades on the knife forums lately.  BTW, if anyone reads the old jimbo article, the knifemaker mentioned seemed to have some problems based on various internet posts.  I suggest you do a search about him to form your own opinion. I am not trying to flame him, just pass on what I have read.
