This is a knife I made for my boy, he made the sheath. Im no knife maker but my son thought it was great. Notice the brass water pipe cap as a butt.

I see I haven't posted in this thread so that means I haven't shown this Great Eastern #15 Boy's Knife. It just has such an old time look and feel to me. The only thing they could have done to improve it would have been to cut a rat tail into the bolster. I'm glad I got it.
