Knife forged from a leaf spring

It’s late so I will be brief. I forged this from a leaf spring at my friend Dave’s forge.

I haven’t decided if I will put an antler handle on it or just a para-cord wrap. I had a great time making this knife.

While we had the fire lit, I also made a couple plant hangers for the house:

Thanks for everything Dave!

Happy Making,

    Those plant hangers are beautiful. Good thing you didn’t show them to me in person, I might have snuck home with one in my purse! LOL
