wenge skinner

Post by hellize »

It is 21.5 cm / 8.5 inch long, the blade is 10 cm/ 4 inch long.
I hand forged it from 5160 steel. The handle is made of stabilized deer antler, and wenge.
The sheath is made of 4 mm/ 0.15 inch thick, sturdy cowhide.

Very fine looking knife!
You can always get more money, good old knives are hard to find.
