Frontier Belt knife

[mlesniewski]

Hello:

I am new to the forum.  Love the site. This is my first post.
Thought I would post a period piece with a little info.
This was done with early styling.  Blade design goes back well into the 18th
and carried over into the 19th century.
Sheath is aged Braintan deer skin with fringe. Lined with rawhide. Stitched with linen cord.
Everything was hand worked.

No pun intended, but that looks sharp!  Great work!  Look forward to seeing more.

A very nice example of the style most commonly seen during the era.

Vaya,

Scouts Out!

Very nice, a real knife a real person can use, I could cut up a deer, cow or buffalo with that.
