I don't make knives but would like to learn someday.  The file is 12" long and 1 1/2" wide.  I paid a nickel for it at a yard sale the other day.  You can have it if you want it.  Scott Fessenden from up your way is trying  to teach me how to knap arrowheads. I get up your way once in  awhile.  E-mail me if you want it.  arrangements could be made for me to drop it off somewhere.  Those knives look pretty nice by the way.
