ray mears grandfathers knife!
looks like it was made from o1 with a brass guard,jarrah scales with black liners,
brass rivets and homemade flax twine for a lanyard.
just guessing,but the sheath looks like its covered in home braintanned thar skin ,but i could be wrong :D
im pretty happy with it anyway.
