I was finally able to finish one of the blades I have been working on between bouts of frostbite. The cold has hit with a vengeance and my shop/garage is freezing even with my puny heater. Enough whining! The knife is forged from 5160 steel. I made the guard/bolster from a slice of copper, sandwiched between some brass. The handle is a small chunk of sambar stag and walnut from a salvaged gun stock. It is amazing what some folks throw away. OAL is 9 1/4" with a 4" blade. Thanks for looking.
