HandMadeKnives Tiel

Here is one of the first big knives I made, In the beginning of my time as a knife maker I made the knives out of files. I did this without softening the steel first, so it was a lot of grinding those days.

So this knife is made out of Mangan steel and it has Mammoth ivory scales with newsilver pins.
Also the back of the handle and a bit of the back of the knife has some filework.
This knife now is in Canada and the owner is using it for hunting and other bigger work.
