How to Dress Up a Plain Jane Knife
« on: November 22, 2009, 05:08:00 PM »
I started off this morning for the fall NECCA (North East Cutlery Collectors Association) knife show with a couple of my blades in tow. These gatherings are always fun and informative.

Anyway this one started off naked:

 

Come home all dressed to the nines!
Very accomplished leathersmith from Maine helped improve my blade.  Now I'm almost embarrassed enough to add a nice and pretty handle befitting the sheath  :)   Doc
