Very nice Charles. Like I've said before, I really like your style. Tell us a bit about it, size, components, etc.
Another beauty from the imagination of Chuck, you turning out some real cool stuff there buddy. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I gotta ask pal, but do you do any type of historical research before you build or do you freestyle with a good sense of the past? As always, very imaginative and beautiful.
Thanks all,
Dale 1075 and 15N20, .125" x 3 1/2" blade and about an equal length hidden tang. I cold blued it, production, USA made. Rawhide over vegtan sheath.
Izzy, I have done some research but none of what I make is what could be considered replication. The old stuff inspires and gives me ideas.
