I made this 17th c. English sheepsfoot out of a large Frankenstein of a carving knife. Handle is turned oak. I copied the blade dimesions and profile from an excellent repro of Ken Hamilton's attached to my shooting bag.

Nice looking plain knife, I like it

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
