Title: Another knife from a file
Post by: Emmons on April 13, 2007, 09:47:00 PM

This knife making is addicting!!! I know the Mods. are getting sick of all the knife post, but I just had to show this off. It is not great, but I am very pleased with it. This is only the second knife I have made. Made from a Nicholson file with a eucalyptus handle, brass pins, and easton 2020 cut off for the lanyard hole. The sheath was made from spare leather I had and hot waxed. Mods., I promise the next knife I post will be in a armguard. That will make it more trad related.

Very nicely done.

Good use of old loonie shafts! I like the lines of the sheath as well. Looks to be a good grind that you put on the blade.
Nice craftsmanship, ChiliBowlHunter. :bigsmyl: :thumbsup:

Thank you everyone!!

Chili ah,, that sounds good I will have to make a pot now.

Still working on getting a nice grind, but that make be taken care of when I finish my grinding jig.

That pic was taken before final sharpening, so the edges looks a little discontinual.
