Me and my dad spent all day yesterday working in the forge, after setting up the rendezvous camp site. We made two horseshoe knives, one for a customer here, the other for a family friend. We also made me a large camp bowie. The bowie is 15" overall. 5" handle, 10" inch blade. Seasoned oak handle with a through tang. Hand guard and butt plate are made from horseshoes, knife itself started as a large chunk of 5160 leaf spring steel off a truck. I'll be making more horseshoe knives to sell and trade. Without further ado, the pictures.....
