Little Drop Point File Knife

(1/4) > >>

4est Trekker:
Good day, all.  Here's a little knife I just finished that's made from an old American-made Nicholson file an old farmer in the area gave me.  I forged the blade pretty close to shape, but there wasn't much thickness to work with.  It's 7 3/8 in OAL with a 3 1/2" blade sanded out to 400.  The spine/jimping/tang has been sanded to 600.  It has rosewood scales with a gentle palm swell.   The fully-welted sheath has a removable belt loop for horizontal carry.  The whole shootin' match is far from perfect, but I learn a bunch with each new knife.  Thanks for looking!

That looks a fine sturdy knife, and a very nice leather sheaf, well made 8).
(I bet that keeps a mean edge.)
