Title: short knife build along
Post by: RGK on March 04, 2007, 09:35:00 PM
This weekend I made some jerky from four large venison hind quarters so I thought I would make a bone knife. I simmered the bones for a few hours.

After a little work I had 4 knife blanks.   :bigsmyl:

I cut off one end and cleaned out all the marrow.

A little shaping and I have a new knife for my Tipi.
