Boot knife

[Brett Gatlin]

Here is one I just finished with a few attempts at something new, for me anyways. The 5" blade is forged from 1075 and I messed around with clay coating during the heat treat. Once finished, I etched the blade and fitted a heat blued stainless guard. The handle is of curly maple. Thanks for looking!

Beautiful knife; as usual, Brett.


Ok, being really picky, I'd like to see more of a coffin-ish shape to the butt of the handle, but that's being really picky.
