Title: My First Knife
Post by: DanaM on September 05, 2007, 08:42:05 am

Here a little project I've been picking away at. The blade is 4" long made out of venisionburgers blade stock.
Handle and sheath are birdseye maple. Overall length 8". I was going to use this for hunting season this year
but my friend gave me a big honkin buck knife for being his best man so I will be using that instead. I've decided
to give this one away to another friend sure hope he likes it.
