I like the knife sheath in your store, but a million dollars seem a little highRossr wrote: ↑Thu Feb 12, 2026 11:04 pm I forged this from a old hay rake tine and decided to make it a neck knife. Maybe got carried away on the sheath, inlay on top, double loop lacing and 4 strand round braid for the neck strap.
Figured you guys and gals might like a look maybe this will wake up the leather humans here haha.

The knife if wonderful but that sheath steals the show. And would you take $750,000?Rossr wrote: ↑Fri Feb 13, 2026 12:17 amBut if i can just sell say 5 at that price im set for life hahahahahaedge213 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 12, 2026 11:18 pmI like the knife sheath in your store, but a million dollars seem a little highRossr wrote: ↑Thu Feb 12, 2026 11:04 pm I forged this from a old hay rake tine and decided to make it a neck knife.

Thank you sir. Ive always liked lace work and the look and I think it compliments things. But I know its a older thing and seems like not as loved these daysOLDE CUTLER wrote: ↑Fri Feb 13, 2026 12:06 pm I particularly like the lace work on the sheath. It really adds the extra touch.
Maybe like a lot of things, not done so much anymore because it is time consuming and people are not willing to pay the extra.Rossr wrote: ↑Sat Feb 14, 2026 2:31 pmThank you sir.

What hay rake tines are you using, if you don't mind me asking?Yes the time.and additional cost I suspect is a factor tooOLDE CUTLER wrote: ↑Sat Feb 14, 2026 2:43 pmMaybe like a lot of things, not done so much anymore because it is time consuming and people are not willing to pay the extra.Rossr wrote: ↑Sat Feb 14, 2026 2:31 pmThank you sir.

I have some.dump rake tines laying about. Which is the 2nd picture. Ive read they are made of high carbon steel and possibly 1095. They are fun to mess with if u have access to them. Thanks too!1967redrider wrote: ↑Sat Feb 14, 2026 4:56 pm Most excellent!What hay rake tines are you using, if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks! I was wondering if the newer style had enough material to work with.Rossr wrote: ↑Sun Feb 15, 2026 6:12 pmI have some.dump rake tines laying about. Which is the 2nd picture.

I never messed with the newer ones and also not sure what steel used on them. Course if we want to be technical i dont know what steel the old ones are. I just know they cut and survive the brass rod test and function from basic tests.1967redrider wrote: ↑Sun Feb 15, 2026 10:46 pmThanks!
