Rick, that is a fantastic looking knife, especially considering it's #4!  Lots of advanced elements included in that project!

I wish I was on that level!

You should be very proud!

What steel did you use?

Been out of town Just got back.Tried to respond to you guys but couldn't remember what the sign in password was.I cant take credit for the blade.That was the 3rd of 3 I purchased at Smokey mountain knife works.I went to West Virginia to take some knife making lessons from RW Wilson..(Tomahawk) He's Been making knives for about 40 years.Boy what a shop.Learned how to hallow grind & flat grind & put some nice handles togeather.He made the tomahawks for the movie Jeramia Johnson with Robert Redford staring.Anyway I put the handle on the knife.I was so excited to post a picture on here I forgot where the blade came from.So I hope you guys like my handle.I've been in Detroit trying to scrape up tools.

Thanks for the info,and the Jerimiah Johnson tidbit(definately a fave of mine).Dont knock it,just because you didn't make the blade-You did a good job.
