Hello all, I finished this up this week and it found a new home right before Christmas.
Im calling it a spear point...there have been some discussion as to the actual shape so feel free to chime in and give me your thoughts. I make a couple different spear shapes and this is more in the line of the Zulu-ish type spear that I do. Some say its a sheepsfoot but I always think of a sheepsfoot as having a straight edge...no belly so what is your opinion?
Anyway...This is done in 3/32" O1 with nickel silver bolsters, pins, shield (pinned) and coin edged liners.
Closed its just shy of 3.5" and open it right at 6"
I have a vid on youtube of the action if you are interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7M3nucvCN0. Ive had a few people asked me what the action and the pull was like on knives in the past so I decided the best way to show them is a video.
Thanks for looking and let me know what you think. As always, questions, comments and critiques are welcome!
Merry Christmas,
Tim
