Full tang wood carving/bushcraft blade designed by Robin Wood and made by Bernie Garland, with some wood stuck on by me!
3mm Carbon Steel with an excellent shape for carving.
The Handle is birch burl locally gathered from the woods from an old fallen tree, with good old brass riviets and birch bark liners. Finished with cold pressed linseed oil and a buff with a cloth.
I like this one as I am running out of decent burl without soft rot within a scale sized peice, so thought this wouldn't be as pretty, but the typical knotwork patterns in burl gave way to some nice stripes and thin black lines of walled off decay.
Hope you like.
