Head's up on fine blade for cheap ...
« on: June 27, 2021, 01:57:05 PM »
ALR post has the details - https://americanlongrifles.org/forum/index.php?topic=65856.msg661447#msg661447

Blade is $50 and that includes shipping!

Description below is from Bernie:

This blade shape was copied from one that was found at Fort Ticonderoga in a grave I believe. Hence the name.

 [ Invalid Attachment ]

The blade is made from file steel and has a hammered forged finish. The finish is left black but you can clean it up bright if you like. Blade Size is about 9 1/4" or so, and 1 1/4" wide at its widest, and about 3/16" thick at the guard. The tang is about 5" long.

It looks like it would finish up into a nice Rifleman's knife.
