Howdy,

I don't know why I called this knife the Spike Elk.... : ) While this is a high carbon rail spike, it is not equivalent to tool steel, I brine and case hardened this knife, though it probably won't win a rope cutting contest. But, it will skin a deer and do camp chores, though you may have to touch it up more often than my regular knives.
Hand Forged 5 and a half inch blade, with a 5 inch handle. I twisted the spike before I handled it, you can see this on the spine.
$160 w/o sheath.

The Blade is Hand Forged from a very old File. The clip point also possesses a False Edge. Spine retains teeth from file for secure purchase as well as file-work at the ricasso for thumb purchase. Etched Finish and multiple Touchmarks. Every year I make 1 or 2 knives with multiple touchmarks, this is the first for 2009.

$250 w/o a sheath.
I just completed this Long Hunter, sized down a bit, which only makes it a bit easier to carry and use. Originally posted here.... http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=662985
