Hi All

I was working on a different knife when I figured I would mess around and make a small one to play with.

I call her Lil Nasty

What do you think?

This would make the ultimate boot knife or neck knife.

Pretty cool! When I was younger, I used to make fillet knives out of worn down files. I had access to machining equipment at the time and it was easy to place them on a surface grinder to thin the files down. Then all they needed was a nice hollow grind and a lead edge. The hard part was making the handles as the rivets were not real easy to find. Knife crafting is an art in itself, good job!
