Scagel fish tail hunter

[R Appleby]

Hello all, My wonderful wife recently bought me the Scagel hand made book by Dr James Lucie(priceless). Shortly after I was digging through my box of parts and pieces and found this split tine antler tip. No question on what I was going to do with that. The forge was already heating up so hey, perfect timing. With out further blah, blah, blah. Here you are.


Specs are;

Blade; 3 1/2 inch hand forged, mirror polished, convexed ground 1095.

Handle; Stacked leather, nickel, brass, black and brick fiber spacers and white tail antler tine tip.

Guard; Brass.

OAL; 9 1/2 inches.

Sheath; 4/5 oz tooled Heiser style.

Thanks for looking

One of the first little books i read about knifemaking was about Mr. Scagel. I think he would have been proud of your interpretation.
