    Cool stuff, you got your own style for sure.

    The prybar bowie is really great.
    I had a compass, but without a map, it's just a cool toy to show you where oceans and ice are.

    Loving the Prybar Bowie . May Have to try that Out Have a Bunch Of Old Ones I Got From My Father In Law . He Had a Tool Box With a Lock On It But Lost the Key to It So In a Few Mins I Had It Opened And In Side Was a Bunck Of Files Of All Sizes and Some prybars . He Told Me The Tool Box Has Been Lockd for Over 20 Years And I Got it Opened In a Few Mins . He Said that the Stuff Was Worthless To Him . And With a Grin I Asked If I Could Have them . So I Got them All and the tool Box too .

    Thanks guys!

    I gave that prybar knife to my neighbor. He's always fixing mowers and chainsaws and such. Long story short he's given me a bunch of mower blades. When I told him he could have it he was grinning like a kid on christmas morning. lol!

    Thanks again!

    you've definitely got your drawing down. i just noticed the starting stock compared to the tang you ended up with. i can't do that yet at all.

    Thanks Canid! I drew it out that much with the intention of putting a wooden handle on it with a nut on the end. Well as you can see I ended up cutting it back to about 3 1/2 inches and using a antler for the handle. Got alot of pratice though...lol!

    The key to the drawing is you cant rush it! It will just fold on you. Heat it, tap a few times and heat it again. Probly took me a hour to draw out the tang...just to cut it off....lol!
