Vintage belt knife with aged Bone handle.

This is a recent custom that I completed in my shop.

Here are some specs on this knife.  The blade measured in
at about 6 inches long with a file worked spine.

The guard is hand forged, and handle was a hair under 5" with
some really nice aged bone.

Sheath was hand stitched and antiqued.

I have a couple new videos posted as well.
This one I made for fun, nice shot of the moon.

This is a continuing of the "ways to carry a knife part 2"

Thank you

Vintage looking trail knife with aged Bone Handle..Leather work

First I want to Send my thoughts and prayers to all that were effected
by Hurricane Sandy.  I also want to thank all of you who sent me
emails and called with concerns and best wishes for me and my family
it is greatly appreciated.  We are all fine. The worse we had here upstate
in my area was high winds that knocked over a couple face cord
of wood.  Other than that we are fine.  Thank you again.

This week I wanted to post this beautiful custom order knife.
A design like this can handle many tasks and has a vintage
look and feel to it.

The blade is about 5 inches long with pattern and patina aging.
The handle is aged bone with plenty of character and has 3
larger sized brass pine.  The spine was beefed up at 3/16"
thick and has been hand file worked.

Sheath was antiqued and hand stitched and the custom ferro rod
was made from a piece of elk antler that was also aged.

If you have been following my work for some time you know I also hand stitch all of
my sheath's and all the tooling and line work is done by hand as well.

I will soon be adding a new page to the site with other leather items I make
as well.  I will post the info here when that is added.

Thank you
Matt
