That's a cool lookin' knife!
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

Nice lookin' knife Kevin. It looks just like what I was drawing out on a File the other day for myself. I only hope mine looks half that good! I've been wanting to buils a gas forge myself, was it hard to do?
