Black primitive.

[Fred.Rowe]

The 9 inch black micro chipped blade was found near Buckeye Lake in central Ohio; it was found by my father, Fred, in 1933.

The steel is 1084 X 15n20. It is simple crushed "W"s with a twist. The blade has been hot blued. I made it for one of my students.

Something old and something new. Very cool both of em.

Nice blade Fred got to check it out at the mid ohio abs hammer-in a couple of weekends ago. And I love this big flint blade!
