Yard Knife
« on: December 24, 2017, 11:09:00 AM »
Seriously, this guy wanted a knife to trim bush limbs while he's mowing and then leave this behind to his grand kids.
It's 8 1/2 inches to make it easy to carry on the mower. Laddered/crushed Ws, 1903 wrought iron and antique Bakelite.
Built in take-down.

 

 

 
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

Nice one.  I especially like the bakelight handle oddly enough.
Relax,

You'll live longer!
