Rustic Butcher Knife with Leopardwood Scales

[NoahL]

I forged this 8.5in butcher knife from a piece of Texas Edition Chevy Silverado leaf spring, left some of the forge finish and acid etched it, then attached some leopardwood scales my wife picked out. This was my first time using leopardwood, and the open grain structure was a bit annoying to work with, but I actually do like how it turned out. Asking $200.
