Homemade Knife Bushcraft/Hunting Hybrid
on: August 01, 2014, 06:02:58 PM
I might as well chime in on my never ending project. Its my first homemade knife.

I started it around February and due to work and ongoing diy jobs around the house I get very little time to finish this beauty off so here's my progress so far, I'm still undecided about handle either I go for a nice wood or micarta. iv plenty of 40 plus yr old mahogany hanging around doing nothing so it might be a consideration.

Sorry about the links iv no idea how to embed photos from flickr
