Title: 1084/Osage Small Hunter
Post by: JohnHV on June 24, 2012, 11:30:00 AM
I haven't posted in a long while, family, work and other obligations have kept me out of the shop, but I am starting to get some time to get back to the forge and grinder.

First of what I hope will be many in the coming months.

This is 1084 steel 7 1/4" OAL, 3 1/2 " edge. Osage Orange grip with a Tru-Oil finish.

I like this pattern, fits in the palm of your hand but with enough blade to do whatever needs doing.
