Custom bushcraft knife

This is a knife I've been making for a customer. I've documented the process on my blog: helmforge.blogspot.com It's forged from leaf spring, hardened in veggie oil, with a copper electrical bus bar guard, stainless steel spacers, and Filipino ebony, osage orange, and desert ironwood for the handle.



With the sheath:



In the sheath:



And a close-up shot of the handle. There's more grain visible in the Filipino ebony and the desert ironwood than my camera can capture.
