old boy scout knife

[windwalker_au]

my brother in law who is 65 gave me this knife he got it when he was 14 and a boy scout and it was second hand then so it is 51 plus years old, it used to have a stacked leather handle with a cast aluminum pommel but the leather just gave up. it was made in japan and of high carbon steel gets a razor edge it still has to be finished of, i put this handle on it and used the old guard. the blade is 8-1/4" long.

Nice rebuild, Bernie! :hatsoff:

I realy like the long clip point on that knife. That wood you use is very pretty. :thumbsup:
