Default New Skinner for this years game animal

Got this in trade some days ago and i went and put a new handle on it. The handle used to be my 4f pan prime charger but i needed a new handle on the knife. Blade is made from an old railroad spike.
Blades takes a darned good edge to it and will come in handy this year if i get anything.
Also got some "new" Traditional hunting clothing to keep me warm on those cool September mornings.

I am removing that brow tine as soon as the epoxy hardens tomorrow.

We used to make knives out of about anything around the junk yard.. We made throwing knives and all sorts of edged weapons. That is a nice looking knife. I used to make some knives years ago, but was never any good at it so I stopped. They were very functional and work well to this day. Just that they were really nothing to look at.
