Ms, forge council class (first forged knife)

[Evan Martin]

Last weekend I took a knifemaking class through the Ms, forge council It was a really fun class I had alot of fun, met some really cool people, and learned alot. I have been doing stock removal for a little while so I did have an upper hand. We did have a small problem with the steel it was supposed to be 5160 but it would not harden in oil we finally got it hard enough to make a decent knife in water.
This is my first forged blade it is about 6" cutting edge with W. buffalo scales
pins are brass, thong hole copper 550cord and bear claw lanyard
