Finished this one up yesterday. It had been pretty much done for the better part of a year. I'd done a mustard patina on it but just didn't care for it so I decided to rub out the blade and I like it much better. I'd picked up a few racks of 1932 Studebaker leaf springs several years ago. Wasn't to impressed with the hardness at the time but do believe it gained hardness after sitting for a year after heat treat. 5" blade and 10" over all. Pretty sure the crown was from a white tail deer. Wagon wheel was used for the fittings.
