My first of the year.....

This blade was in a very large batch of forgings I did over a 3 week period. The blade was forged out of a Nash/Metro leaf spring from 1959. Not sure what the steel is, by the spark I am getting from it it looks nothing like any spring steel I have ever used. I've got a piece in to be analized so should know in a few weeks. The blade is 7 1/2" with a total length of 12 1/2". My standard wrought iron fittings and a blackwood handle.

I don't see any ice in this pic, Ray.

Don't tell me it has thawed already?

That one has a nice Persian flair. I like the blackwood and the hammon.
