    That's really nice work Hudson. Is that corncob handle slick or does the texture give your hand purchase??

      Did you forge the blade yourself? That cob handle is pretty neat.

        I cut it out of a sawmill blade.

      Saw blades are good steel. I’ve made many a knife out of them.πŸ‘

          Are you forging them into shape or just cutting and sharpening the steel?
