I do find it useful.I was watching a Norwegian woodsman in a YouTube video last night.

I have been thinking of getting a hand forged one for myself.
Coming to the point do you find it useful and what do you use it for?
Thanks, Todd. Yup—love this combo!That’s a pretty 62 Jim, snakewood and a leaf shield, nice combo.![]()
