That'd be a good name for that knife..."Penny For Your Thoughts".

Mighty nice, very useful.
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

pat the first knife I ever put together I also bought a blade from Bill. It turned out nice and I have made 3 others since then . I still have 8 others in different stages and am learning as I go but love the first one.
FLINTKNAPPING IS EASY...I WAS ALWAYS TOLD I COULD BREAK AN ANVIL WITH A POWDER PUFF.

I made a neck sheath for my Hickory Bill neck knife. I used some scrap brain tanned leather someone sent me for another project. I think it came out nice...

Thanks guys.

I didn't like the way it looked with the brain tanned lacing so I opted for contrasting hemp cord stitching. I like the contrast of it.
 Since I was putting a sharp, steel knife in the sheath I used a rawhide liner to protect the brain tanned leather. I stitched the rawhide liner in when I stitched the sheath....
