Here's my first attempt at forging a knife. 1095 Carbon Steel forged with coal. The handle is Olive Green Canvas Micarta w/ nickel pins and red liners. I also wet formed a leather holster for it. I really like the look of a hammer forged knife blade paired with a clean modern handle. What do you guys think? I still need to pick up an etching machine to put a makers mark on my blades.

I like it- looks practical and it might work pretty good in a kitchen where you'll be able to test it a lot.
Keep up the good work :)
