Patch knife/ball starter

[Nifeman]

Hey fellers, here's a neat little knife Miss Tudy found in an old book. It incorporates a small folding knife in a ball starter. I used a piece of birch, a piece of cross cut saw, a piece of 1/2" copper tubing and an 8d nail for the pin.
Miss Tudy finished it off with a small pouch type sheath made of elk. The sheath attaches via 4 thongs thru the "ears" on the sides of the pouch.
Hope y'all like it and thanks for looking...Bud and Tudy :wink:
