I forged this knife a couple months ago and just got around to finishing it up. I am going to donate it to the Mt. Zion Archery League to be given away as a prize in the fall. It is 1084, full tapered tang with African blackwood scales and stainless corby rivets. Still need to put an edge on it and make a simple leather sheath.

Very nice, indeed.
I really like what you did with the dropped edge, choil and ricasso area.
Very well thought out.
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.

Very nice work.  Simple & elegent too, the "Hamon" came out well, It's a beauty!

That is a classy piece all the way around.  It's very cleanly-finished with great lines.  The hamon looks marvelous.   :)
