First knife, 1971

[LRB]

My daughter brought this one back to me to clean up so she can put it in a case. This is #1 made in 1971 from a file. I must have put 60 hours in this thing, but learned a lot doing it.

Awsome! Got to love the way the stag has colored.

Nice job LRB , 35 yrs ago eh ? Even though you did a fantastic job on your "first" I bet it is a far cry from where you're at today. Besides my life long love of Blades , that is one of the reasons I make them. Leaving something behind that people will enjoy for many, many years to come. Like Will said , she sure has aged beautifully Thanks for posting that LRB , really nice Blade :thumbup:
