New to knapping, my first knife
« on: December 15, 2018, 10:57:05 pm »
Made my first knife today. Made from a piece of glass I salvaged from the river while kayaking and the antler from one of my selfbow kills.

Looks great Dave. Love how you got your materials to. How's the beard coming?

Me to Dave. It might be a bit early but it's time for me to start getting ready.

Nice start, keep at it. Fingers (hand showing) look free from cuts and gashes. Rick B
