Unusual blacksmith's knife

[hellize]

Here's another blacksmith's knife, but this time is a bit tricky.
Its handle is forged in such way, that it has a cylindrical feel about it, just like a wooden handled knife, only this one is one piece of steel.
It is somewhat larger than the others. The total length is 32 cm.
The sheath, as always, is made of thick cow hide.

Hope you like it.

Well actually you should see a moose footprint. But don't worry, almost no one recognizes it

That's funny, I've always recognized your mark as a deer hoof print, but until this thread I never saw it as a cross on a shield! What one person sees, another sees it completely differently.
