Title: Yes two more file knives
Post by: ssgtchad on January 18, 2019, 10:57:50 am

Here's two more file knives. The one on top has a socket with the antler inserted inside, and made petty with epoxy coated hemp. And the bottom one was differentially harded showing the hamon. Thanks for looking.

Those look great!

These are inspiring.  I've got an old ferrier rasp I've been saving for something special, and just acquired a couple of elk sheds just begging me to make a file knife.
