Early American Pouch Knife - 'Woodcraft' Knife

[Bob Alderman]

Hi,

Bob here again, with a knife, that might catch your interest.

It is a Pouch Knife, with early American style blacksmith touch marks.

The knife is 9 1/2 inches overall, and the blade is 4 3/4 inches blade, 1/8 inch thick

I forged it from a file, gave it a tool style handle, it has brass guard, and the bolster is copper wrapped.

A further price drop to $135, from $150, previously $165, w/o sheath, sheath available upon request.


Now, it may be period style, but that don't mean it can't work. This knife would skin a deer or even be a fine woodcraft or 'bushcraft' knife, and with style too.

Rockywolf - That tang is tapered, with radiused shoulders, the guard and wrap is soldered to the tang, and the tang extends a little farther than 3/4 of the handle. Thanks for asking.

Thank you gentlemen, for the compliments.

That's a nice looking piece. You've really captured the period, a sense of nostalgia, a sense of history. Fantastic.
