Dan C Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Beautiful work! I'd be interested in knowing more about the processes you used in making the knife, if you have time. Did you anneal it first then grind off the teeth, stock removal, forge the profile, how you heat treated it, etc. I ask because I have a large stock of old files & rasps that I just started playing with. I picked one of the smaller files, hot cut & forged the tip, then annealed it. I ground the bevels & edge yesterday and will heat treat it in the next few days.

Momatt Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I like it, looks like it belongs tucked in some man from the 1850s belt. Is the wrap at the top of the handle rawhide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
