My first knife build sheath finished and picture added on page 2

I have been wanting a hand made knife for a while, so I decided to try to build my own. I purchased a file blank from hickorybill and started putting it together. I used a deer antler I harvested for the scales, 1/8 brass pins and vine filed the spine. Then polished and sharpened the blade, next I will make a sheath so I can carry it as a daily use knife and hunting buddy. I know it is not perfect but I am pleased with it and it holds an edge very well.
