Hidden tang skinner

This was my first attempt at fitting a guard on a hidden tang knife. I ended up getting a decent fit, but there's still a little slop around the tang that I need to work on. 1084 blade, just under 9" OAL with a 4" blade. Sheat is rawhide over veggie tan leather, stitched with cotton string and cover with snake skin. I whittled and chopped on some osage for a while with it last night and it still shaved when I got done.

Shamefully, I did grind on this one with my craftsman belt. :shush: I was under the gun to get this one done before Christmas so I had to speed things up a little.
