Billy Smith Scagel......

Post by Hogkiller »

6 3/4" overall in length with a 3 1/4" high carbon steel blade. The sheath was handmade by Billy Smith. This is a beautiful little knife with a historical twist. The wood used for the handle actually belonged to Bill Scagel himself and was found in his workshop after he died in the late 60's. The wood is Lignum Vitae and the handle is mixture of leather washer,brass and white spacers.
