Forged 5160 steel. Scales are bloodwood and pins are steel. My first attempt at tapering a tang.

Good Job!!Like the taper on the tang did you taper forward also?

VERY nicely done Bret. I like everything about that little beauty. The finger groove? on the underside is a nice touch.

Very nice!

Good job, did ya forge or grind the taper?

Doug, the tang taper is ground. Just so you know, I am watching the elk hunt for St. Judes very, very, closely.
