Charity bushcraft knife

[Hibrion]

Hi guys

Just finished this one up today. It's going to be auctioned on Facebook soon for a local cancer charity, so I've been keen to get it finished.

The blade is a Tlim bushcraft blade handled in stabilised amboyna burl, with black liners and brass hardware. I've put a patterned forced patina on the blade and a full scandi grind, without the secondary bevel.
The sheath is veg tanned leather hand tooled with a traditional floral style pattern and saddle stitched with waxed linen thread. I've died it black and finished it with a coat of resolene.

I got a kit containing a swivel knife and some basic stamps for my birthday a fortnight ago and I've really enjoyed learning how to use it.

Thanks, mate. I didn't know the proper name for that style.

If it's allowed, I'd be happy to share the link. The funds raised will go towards a cancer support centre called the Solas centre. Several donated items are auctioned on facebook, and a charity bike run, called the 'save our boobs and balls run' is also organised every year.

If you are interested I'll give you the link when the auction is live
