Curly Maple Handled Belt Knife

The blade is forged from an old file, stamped with my mark, and tempered to hold a great edge. The cutting edge is 4 3/8". The overall length is 8 5/8. The curly maple slabs are held with  1/16"copper pins peened over to work as rivets. The vegetable tanned leather sheath is sewn with waxed linen thread and dyed dark.
