Hog Hunting Knife

[Whit]

This knife is a customer-designed Hog Hunting Knife. He provided his old one for me as a template. The blade is forged 5160, just about 9" long, and 3/16" at the spine with a distal taper. I left just a little bit of forge marks on the blade, I had intended to leave more, but it got away from me a little bit. The guard is brass, spacers leather, and the handle is an Axis deer crown.
That hog hunting thing sounds too high adventure for me, I'll stick to knifemaking. Thanks for looking.

That looks great. I like the angle of the handle, something different from ordinary.
