A Primitive Knife

[G L Drew]

When I showed this one to my wife she said "is that a primitive knife?" (I don't think she really likes this style). It is what I think of as a blacksmith made knife that was traded for a chicken or a peck of potatoes.

Flat grind finished to 400 grit
Forge markings on the flats
White tail antler handle
Overall length: 9 inches
Blade: 5 inches
Riveted leather scabbard

$70 ----SOLD----delivered to the US or Canada. My PayPal account is gldrewknives@yahoo.com Checks with time to clear or USPS money orders also accepted.

This knife sold for $70??? Wow, it could've been priced significantly higher than that. No wonder it sold as soon as it was posted. Great deal, that.

I'll give you three chickens, a sack of potatoes, and a cabbage?

NO need to grocery shop G.L. just go to the shop and and build more. Nice piece.

 

[raindog101]

Wow, Mr Drew! I like this one a lot. Make some more, and they'll sell like hotcakes!

 

[WVDAVE]

At that price I'd be interested in one too. Very nice work.

 

[grumpyxtremes10]

I'd give 85 for one easy with a wood handle.

 

[PayetteRucker]

We'll keep you fed if you keep us sharp!

Thanks for all the great comments guys. I have been trying to develop a knife that is quick to make and using left over materials like antler tines and short pieces of steel. I don't spend a lot of time on the handle either, just drill a hole and epoxy it in. Looks like I hit it right with this one. I have a couple of shows coming up soon but there will be more of these in the future.
