Elk jaw knife
« on: November 03, 2024, 01:14:53 pm »
Just finished a seax-type knife. It's a little too stout for fine cutting work; better for wreaking havoc on one's enemies in a shield wall.   :OK

Elk jaw handle with chokecherry wood cap and guard, finished with beeswax/pine pitch. Blade is damascus steel, purchased off Etsy. I sort of keep my eye open for good deals on blades like this. Yes, it's very sharp. 🗡️ I really love chokecherry wood; beautiful stuff and really hard and durable. There's no stain on this; that's the natural color.  Nice stuff.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
