Bush knife
Bush knife
Made this knife at home for my p.w. To keep it in the truck with some of my tools...5160 steel I hope..I heat treated as so...she holds an edge so far after chopping that block of hard wood and some cardboard

thanks..yep truck spring...alot of work but it was fun....
Re: Bush knife
THAT is wayyyyy cool !!! 
I am a HUGE knife guy. 5160 ROCKS for a knife blade. It is a steel that can cut other steels, literally !!!
Not 5160 but they used to have a video of 5160 doing the exact same thing.

Re: Bush knife
Holy shit that's bad to the bone & super creative & talented . I suck. 
Re: Bush knife
These 2 Ontario's I have are made from 5160.
After batoning these through multiple logs with knots, they still easily shaved hair.

Re: Bush knife
You makin' that for Paul Bunion ??? 
I have an Ontario knife made by Justin Gingrich, It is a Ranger Signature Series, made from 3/8" S7 tool steel. It is my most expensive knife to date @ $150.00, quite a few years ago. Don't let anyone tell you that thick knives can't be shaving sharp either. That one i have literally can curl a single piece of hair.
