Moving on. The knives are all finished and sharpened now. They are laid out on a table and cleaned with WD40 on a cotton ball and each bolster is done with Flitz. Then a leather string/lanyard is blood knotted on and the knife is placed in a numbered slot in a box. The number tells me what sheath to build for each knife and what knife each sheath goes to as the sheaths are all fitted to a specific knife.
