Interesting story around it. I had showed it to a friend who told me he was looking for just such a knife only he needed it to look... old. Now, even if you know nothing about knife making one thing you probably know for sure, people that make things by hand don't make them to look old. No way. At the same time, dude did offer to buy if I could pull it off.


I've posted it in a forum or two and the results are pretty well the same. People either love it, think it's a joke, or don't believe it is brand new. I take that as a good sign. I have had one other inquiry about buying one made just like it though... Go figure. Spend time learning to sand so you can put it chemically... odd old world it is.

Stay tuned. More to come I am sure. I will probably make one more the same size just so I have one. I liked it shiny.... ;-)
