Here is a ridiculous knife I made from an old rasp I found kicking around in an old abandon barn, and a hickory stave I cut a few years ago to make a bow, but it twisted while I was letting it dry in attic of shop. I'm not sure about this thing on one hand I think its cool, on the other hand I'm not sure I would ever use it, I'm not sure I could keep my pants up with it strapped on it weights about 4lbs. After heat treat I couldn't get all the junk out of the old file so I threw it in the sand blaster and hit it with some coal slag, the end result is unique so I went with it.
