Here's a couple knives I've been messing with for sometime now. Both were forged from leaf springs and left forge finished. Both have iron fittings and curly maple handles salvaged from a piece of fire wood. The larger knife has a 6" blade and is around 11 1/2" overall. The smaller knife has a 4 1/2" blade and is around 9" overall. Must have been feeling patriotic on the smaller sheath. Tried making the 4th Inf Ivy Division shield and it actually turned out. 1st of the 22nd was the unit I was with in Nam.
