Dutch Styled Trade Knife

A medium sized belt knife with an 18th c. Dutch/Flemish flavor. 5 1/2" sheepsfoot blade of 01 steel with a through tang peened over a steel butt cap. The grip is stained Boxwood, turned and chip carved. The sheath is vinegaroon stained 6/7 oz. vege-tanned leather sewn with linen thread, and cuir bouilli treated to harden it. Hope you enjoy a look.
