The knife my brother made me
This is a knife my little brother made for me a couple of years ago. (for free, as a result of loosing a bet)
The blade was made by a local blacksmith to my specifications. It is laminated, soft steel on the sides to make it easier to hone and less brittle, swedish file-steel in the middle to make the edge hard. That is the way we make all blades where I come from and they take a scary sharp edge.
Sheath is made from leather.
Handle (or scales maybe, this being a shave form) is made from ebony and ivory (he had an old piece laying around)
I don't really use it that much, since it is kind of hard to find any non-criminal uses for it :mace:
