new knapped knife
« on: August 15, 2010, 03:43:13 pm »
My friend Snakeman knapped the blade for me a few months ago and since we finally got around to making some pine pitch, I figured it was time to finally get around to hafting the blade.  I wrapped the pitch with a layer of sinew.  I used one of my arrows for size reference. (5 1/2 inch shield cut feathers) What do ya think?  Thanks for looking!  :)
