D.C Halsted 9/8 FBU
D.C Halsted seems to have been a fairly prolific maker. I've restored several of his blades this year both wedges and hollow grinds but this is the first blade of his I've seen over 1 inch. I was surprised not to find him listed in Tweedale's Directory. Does anyone have information on him?
This blade measure 1 3/16 inches and will wear some horn scales when it's finished. Not much needs to be done to the blade. It's in nice condition.

Goodgoogalymoogaly!
I am a fan of D.C. Halsted, with one of my favourites in my rotation being one. So this one is making me a little weak in the knee!

Nice! Strange lack of info on Halsted. Perhaps someone will come along who knows? It certainly seems a ringer for a Wade and Butcher!

I love it ! Congrat's karlej, that is a very sweet blade. Please post the pics when it gets the new shoes.
