Title: Hammered frontier style knives.
Post by: sticshooter on October 03, 2009, 06:52:00 PM

As some here know I like old rustic style knives.I also like making them from old stuff that is no longer used for it intended purpose. here are two i had been working on and just finished today. I did a Hudson bay style knife a couple of weeks ago and liked it alot. Had this one also with just a little shorter blade. The other knife  I guess could be called a spear point?The short Hudson has old weather maple board handle and of course  file bolsters. Blades started out 1/4 and is 5160. Blade on the Hudson is 5" oal is 8.75" the spear point had claro walnut handle and copper wire pins(twisted) blade is also 5160 and is 4.5" oal is 8.5". Thanks<><
