Posted a pic of the blades prior to heat treating and tempering. Here are 4 of the ones I posted.




Top one is a sheepsfoot design with a pigtail so maybe it's a half bread. Made from a Nicholson knife file. 8 3/4 overall and 4 1/4 tip to scales. Desert ironwood scales with copper pins.

The second one is an EDC made from an old sawmill blade. 6 7/8 overall and 3 tip to scales. Scales are Mesquite burl with brass mosaic pins and lanyard tube.

The third one an EDC made from a babbit rasp. 6 1/2 overall and 2 15/16 tip to scales. Scales are dyed giraffe bone with brass mosaic pins and lanyard tube.

The forth one is a little bigger EDC made from a babbit rasp. 7 3/4 overall and 3 1/4 tip to scales. Scales are spalted Hackberry with brass mosaic pins and lanyard tube.

Thanks Jes. Still have to make sheaths but I'll let prospective owners decide if they want a right or left hand sheath.

Top gets my bits, but the dyed giraffe bone is pretty and I'm a sucker for a file or rasp blade
