Papaws knife
Here is a knife my papaw made. He died in 2013. Made from a saw blade from a machine shop. I've since had a sheath made for it but its on my belt. I plan to skin a deer with it for nostalgia.

Great looking knife...without the family attachment. With the family connection makes it an awesome heirloom! Thanks for sharing it with us!!!

I'm sure it will do a great job on the deer and a great keepsake from your grand dad.

That's nice! Reminds me of an OT fixed blade pattern.

Very cool 
. So nice that you have a knife that was handmade by your Pawpaw, good medicine and fond memories within every time you use it I'm sure.

It is fantastic to have something handmade by your grandpa.
Cherish it and remember him each time you use it.
