I have posted before how I do love making knives from old files. Here's one I completed this week. This is my rendition of the Randall model 23 made from an old old rusted up Nicholson file. She took the heat treat and temper extremely well and is a cuttin fool. Nickle silver grip and buttcap with an elk antler handle from a shed I picked up in New Mexico last year. Hope you enjoy. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/Njf4n7dS/HH-GON-23.jpg)

Nice. Any pics of it prior to handling?
