Title: rendevous knife
Post by: bubby on September 05, 2015, 11:14:05 pm

here's a knife I just finished up made from a file, took an old bleached out checked horn and cleaned it up dyed it with dark brown rit then buffed the crap out of it used a piece of bone for a bolster, I wanted it to have an old look for black powder events, it's 12-1/2" total length just need to make a sheath(http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/tt320/bubncheryl/neck%20knife/20150904_195013_zpsw9exlkbz.jpg) (http://s623.photobucket.com/user/bubncheryl/media/neck%20knife/20150904_195013_zpsw9exlkbz.jpg.html)
