First forged blade

Just finished up the sheath on the first knife I've forged (couple weeks ago now)
Moose antler andle and sheath lower, leather oak-tanned cowhide upper, and home-tanned deerskin loop.
Not intentionally middle-earth, but fits it well I think.

Nice and the combination scabbard is unique and fits the style well.

Yes! It's modelled after the Såmi and Finnish etc. leather and antler handled, though I haven't seen any of those made with bark-on moose antler spikes (usually reindeer shaft sections)
