Saiga308 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 My Dad really liked the fixed blade pocket knife I forged the first time, so I hammered him out one too. The steel is 1/2" round bar and I used red spacer material and Bocote wood for the handle. I tried to taper the spine from about midway forward and to the back, I also made the edge convex, including the chisel. The sheath is Kydex, the trick was getting it to form a clamp that will grip the top seam of the front pants pocket so that it will stay put and not slide around. Anyway it was a lot of fun and I am already looking at the last piece of steel I have thinking, what if....? Here are some pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
