san mai

Goblin skinner

It is 19 cm / 7.5 inch long, the blade is 8.5 cm/ 3.5 inch long.
It is a san mai damascus, which I hand forged from 5160, L6 and 1.2516. The handle is made of deer antler and leather disks.
The sheath is made of 4 mm/ 0.16 inch thick, sturdy cowhide.

Handy little fellow and ideal companion for longer walks in the forest or on mountain hikes. Helpful at peeling an apple, when you sit on a fallen tree trunk at lunch time, while goblins are lurking behind you in the bushes. Carving runes into a stick to pass time in the hung up cage waiting for the water to boil up in the huge cauldron, after the goblins rushed you and dragged you away to their cave in the thick woods. Guess who's coming to dinner?!
And finally eviscerating those pesky goblins with great delight, after you manage to free yourself from their primitive cage, thanks also to your trusty little knife and a well developed frontal lobe.
This one also works like a charm on heavily armored mountain trolls as well 😉

What a beautiful and efficient goblin dispatcher. Is the sheath made from tanned goblin skin? ::tu:: ::tu:: ::nod:: ::nod:: ::nod::

Of course it is! Is there any other way to make it? ::paranoid:: ::ds::
