My wife questions my reasoning when I take a brand new knife and try to make it look like an antique. I tell her that it is what some people want for reenactments or cowboy shoots. Or maybe just for something unique in hunting camp.

Wow. Nice knife. Am I reading that correctly? Did you do the mustard finish after bluing it?

Hi Gerry

Glad that your wife didnt convince you not to make this "old" knife.
It arrived today and is very impresive.
Not only does it realy look old but is a very well made and nice feeling piece.
The handle fits my hand perfect and is smooth yet with grip.
The sheath is also well done and solid and safe.

Now as to value, Nah what a bargin.
Thanks
Alan
