That is absolutely beautiful.  Awesome knife.  What kind of stone is that?

 This was a sawed slab of some kind of brick from Tennessee. The Gentleman that was at Pappy's Classic last year, selling points and slabs, gave me 5 precut slabs that were too hard for him to knap. I heat treated them 3 times at 550 dgs, it was still a brick. I gave one to Claude when he was going to pit fire a bunch of stuff and he said he cooked it at 800+ and it was just right. Well he chipped the point out and gave it to me and I mounted it in a piece of Birdseye Maple I got from Brian Melton. It's wrapped with some Ostrich sinew I got from Marc a few years ago also. I guess I trade a lot/ ;)

Very cool knife, Eddie. Is that blade a traditional/historical shape?

  Pat, I think so, Claude told me it was shaped like some style , but I forgot what it was. I got it from the older Gentleman under the tent with Becca at Pappy's , if you remember him.

Nice "pointy implement" Eddie.  It's very pleasing to the eyes.
