frontier knife

not sure what to call it, just wanted to try a few things out, 5 1/2" blade of saw steel with just enough forging to leave a few marks, danish oiled curly maple handle, mustard patina finish on blade.

Nice job Will, clean lines and looks the part.

Will, sure looks bigger than a 5 1/2" blade to me but I sure do like it.

 

[J. Neilson]

Rough & Tough, that's what I'd call it. Looks cool.

Thanks guys,

Ray it's got a 5 3/4" cutting edge and is 1 1/2" at the widest, 10 3/4" overall, I was giving the dimentions from my scatered memory, had to break out the tape measure.

I may have to make a few more like this as some how I don't think people will be afraid to use it, it's already about as ugly as it's going to get.

I like it Will!

it's already about as ugly

There is a big difference between ugly and character. There is a lot more to life than shiny things!
