I forged this one from a train car spring I picked up at the wreck in the picture. Scales are blaze orange G10 with black G10 pins and liners blade has a stonewashed finish. Overall length is 6 3/4” with a 3 1/2” handle and 2 3/4” cutting edge. Comes with a kydex sheath. $125 shipped to your door. Cash, check, or money order preferred. First “I’ll take it” gets it. Thanks for looking.

Nice but the handles aren't all that attractive. Any radioactivity in the blade metal?

I think the scales are great. Lay it down or drop it in the woods and you can find it again. Very nice

Good point, Not attractive but very functional. Although I hate to admit it, I have lost a nice custom blade in the deer woods.

Thanks guys. I have always liked the brighter colored knives, way easier to find once you set them down. I don't have a website set up yet, but I'm working on it. I do have a couple knives with some pretty nice wood scales just about wrapped up. No radioactive material, critical race theory, or endangered species in the blade on this one.

I may be showing my ignorance here, but is there any way you could add your makers mark, after the knife is complete?

It's hard to see in the pictures with the finished on this one, but I did etcht the blade with my mark. Here is a pic of what it looks like on knife without the stonewashed finish.

BTW, if you don't care for the look of someone's custom work, shown in a classified ad, you can certainly go fuuck yourselves somewhere else as your opinions are 100% irrelevant.

Scales look fine to me, definitely worth asking price.. try to find another knife that nice for that kind of money.

I like the knife.
LIke our choice in females, what we like varies with the person . . .
We don't all have the same tastes . . .

AND

That's a good thing!!

!What caught my eye was how corroded the inside of that tank car is.
Looks to me to be that some really incompatible material(s) have been loaded before and that and other cars like it will fail in use.

Where was the train wreck, other than the comment about the scales that was in very poor taste.

Pretty extreme way to get a knife blade.

Very nice work !
Will the black finish stay like that, or will it eventually wear?

I like the knife! But I have too many knives now that just sit in the drawer that rarely see the light of day other than getting them out for a wipedown now and again......

Not a thing not to admire about someone crafting a knife to use and enjoy. Thanks for posting and listing at a very fair price.

And thanks MtnBoomer for your well-deserved words of wisdom in your first post. (BTW, if you don't care for the look of someone's custom work, shown in a classified ad, you can certainly go fuuck yourselves somewhere else as your opinions are 100% irrelevant.)
