Canadian Belt Knife

sc_barker · Mar 23, 2009

Just finished this one, its the first time I've made a Canadian belt knife and i hope I've done it justice. Its made form 4mm RWL34 with a belt finish flat sabre grind and 600 grit hand rubbed flats. The handle is some stunning desert ironwood over black liners held in place with nickel silver corby bolts.

OAL - 220mm
Blade - 100mm

Thanks for looking.

nice job of re-creating the Canadian Russell Belt Knife. did you do a typical Russell style sheath? Wonder how many Canuck collectors have owned a Russell? Pretty common tools in the kit was that knife and the Normarks both hunters and fillets. Missed getting to the Russell factory but maybe next time we head east.
