Picked this knife at an estate sale last Friday for $.50.
Filed off a couple inches and wah-lah!! I loved the feel of the handle and had to convert!
Overall length is now 7 3/4"

Hey Scott that's pretty neat. Is there a maker's stamp on it anywhere?

Very cool, I have picked up a few Old Hickory knives for a buck or less, will have to make pics later. Got some red micarta somewhere to put on one....
I did already get tbe rust off them, they clean up pretty easily!
