I want to make a machete always.
But I fouled up several times
before I got a good material.
This is Japanese forging steel sheet.
I make it with a hand grinder
with no extra heat treatment.
Full tang grip
Juniper wood scales
I'll add some rivet on this.
It has balanced appearance,
and peculiar press machine marks.
I throw up its leather sheath.
It leaves some room for improvement.
Total length : 468mm
Blade length : 320mm
Blade thickness : 4.1mm
Weight : 440g
It looks formidable!
답글삭제Very nice job on the golok and sheath. I'm sure the knife works very well. :)
