Belt Knife


This knife has a 5 1/4" blade forged from 1084 carbon steel. It measures 9 3/4" overall. The handle is whitetail antler with the spiral pattern cut and filed in. The pommel and bolster are steel with the tang passing clear through. With it is a form fitted sheath made from vegetable tanned cow hide, that is hand sewn with linen thread and dyed dark. It shaves!

Rifleman's Knife

This knife has a 6 1/4" blade forged from 1084 steel, a pewter bolster, and the tang passes through the whitetail antler handle about 3/4 of the way back. The sheath is vegetable tanned cow hide sewn with linen thread and dyed dark- still wet in this photo. I may antique the sheath and darken the pewter.
