Poor Boy Knife
« on: February 06, 2012, 05:32:20 PM »
I was asked to make a knife to go with a New England Poorboy Smoothbore
This Is what I came up with.
6 3/8" Blade of A-2 Steel
4 1/8" Full Tang Handle
Wormy Chestnut Slabs (From a old barn in N.C.)
Iron Pins
Center Seam Sheath
All lightly aged
As always, Thanks for looking and comments welcome!
