Rustic Skinner

Made this blade from a seat spring from an old wooden horse drawn wagon. Blade has been edge quenched resulting in a neat hamon. Scales are Bois d'arc (Osage Orange) made from a foundation support that came out from under a house that was built in 1900 with black liners and copper mosaic pins. Overall length is 7 7/8" and blade is 3 5/8" tip to scales.

Absolutely beautiful,

nicely done Mike
