Bushcraft Knife

Handle detail showing brass and copper mosaic pins

JRE Bushcraft sheath with Firesteel
Here is a knife I made this summer from O-1 flat ground tool steel. It measures 7.5" long overall, with a 3.5" blade. The blade has a 11 degree bevel grind on each side with a steeper micro-bevel at the very edge. The handle is purpleheart wood affixed with epoxy and brass and copper pins. The wood is finished with melted wax and then hand buffed.
