Title: Oops, I cut the cheese!
Post by: JW_Halverson on April 30, 2019, 02:54:22 pm

Curly ash scales, file material blade from one of our members. I asked him to make a bushcrafting at Christmas as a gift for a friend, I liked it so much that I had to have one for myself. Six and a half inch blade, a full .200 inch thick spine, and overall length of 11.75 inches. Weighing in at a solid 10.9 ounces/307 grams, this hair popping sharp will handle branch lopping, pole trimming, and batoning firewood with ease.

Dang skippy!  I have a rifleman's knife, a railroad spike polled 'hawk, and now this bushy knife....all with the curly ash. You sensing a theme here?

I am hoping he chimes in here and tells folks a little about the process.
