Boning Knife

Here is an 8" boning knife I just finished up. The blade was forged from a saw blade and is under 1/8" thick on the spine. The curly maple handle was saved from a firewood pile, has 3 brass pins and a pewter bolster. The scabbard is also curly maple, but from different stock and has 2 pewter bands.

Fire Place Tools and Rack

All forged from 3/8" square stock.

Lined bag with hand woven stap

Probably one of most time consuming leather projects I've tackled. This bag was made using thick bark tanned deer skin, lining fabric, waxed linen thread, a hand woven sash, and steel buckles. All pockets and gussets are lined. Everything is hand sewn with a saddle stitch. After completion the bag was wet formed, dried , and treated with a leather preservative.
