This is knife #4 forged from a Crosby 9 1/2 ton shackle. I don't know what the make up is but it felt tough to move with my 4 lb hammer. For the first one I didn't want to use expensive steel.
I used cypress for the handle. Homemade layered veneer and a red spacer. The first handle was junk. I went outside to do a chop test and quickly proceeded to the anvil to smash off the original that kept slipping out of my grip. The new one feels great! AND. Feels very secure in hand.
I think I can use it as a bushwacker/camp knife.
I would like some constructive criticism. I want to get better at this so go for it you can't hurt my feelings.
Thanks for looking.
