Neo-Tribal Work Knife







This little knife is one of my Neo-Tribal Metalsmith knives.

It is forged from leaf spring, the cutting edge is filed by hand, and the steel hardened in vegetable oil. I used vinegar to eat the scale off, leaving the forge finish. The handle is wrapped in 20 ga. jeweler's copper wire with cotton cord Turk's head knots and all the wrap sealed up with amber shellac. The sheath is a simple fold-over Kydex job. The blade is approximately 4" long. It will shave hair.

I'm asking $130, plus shipping.
