This is a Japanese Yanagibas knife I made from an old Nicholson lathe file. Old Nicholson files are made from 1095 high carbon steel. I annealed the file and then ground out this knife followed by an oil quench. It is hone on a traditional 6000 grit wet stone and is razor sharp. Curly maple and African black wood handle. This was lots of fun to make. It will be up for sale soon on my web site.

New drop point knife finished and is for sale on www.sandownforge.com

Here is a new drop point knife with O1T tool steel. Brass guards and scrimshaw on the imitation ivory and wood scales.
