It always amazes me the diversity of the native re-use of steel for forging blades.
how about the Dyak (and others) knicking the rail pins right out the sleepers!

Back to the Knife.
Lovely one Lew, even nicer than it looked in the first pics.

Here are a few more pics. The finale looks cast and not machine made?

Hey Lew,

This is quite different from what I had imagined and was referring to...the new ones are hollow and machined.

This one is likely quite a bit older then I had imagined.

Even cooler!

...and I really like the scabbard decor...and the videos!! Thanks!
