I liked my larger 10 inch Nessmuk so much that I decided to forge a smaller one as a working belt knife. 8 & 1/2 inch Nessmuk from 5160 carbon steel, blade is thin & sharp, and tang is drilled for a handle of either split antler or some nice wood. Only thing difference from an original Nessmuk is the indent to protect your finger from the sharp blade.
Should be a beauty brother
Great looking tool.

Love the shape of the knife . Very nice :thumbsup:
Very nice, the curvature of the horn scales matches the handle shape is outstanding.
great pattern the horn is going to be a great addition
Looks very nice. I like horn.
Oops, my pictures got all messed up...
This is the finished Sheep Horn Nessmuk. I love doing knives in sheep horn...but this sheep horn is special. I've had it foe at least 10 years waiting for the perfect knife with a wider handle to show it off. The horn ridges are so symmetrical and uniform...tippit
