That's a nice knife!!  What's the thickness of the sawblade you used?

I like that knife a LOT!!  Lots of posts of small knives and neck-knives, which are fine but I like my knives to have a bit of meat on them :)

very nice knife Swamp.  Is the patina on the blade natural or did you put it there? It looks natural. :)  I really like it.

Thanks Hatch and Josh.Hatch the thickness on the blade is 3 sixteenths and I am like you I like a knife I can work with.Josh the patina on the knife came from heat treating the knife,I like the way the patina turned out on this one.
