Something different , a Kephart design knife.
Horace Kephart was a trained librarian and writer from the turn of last century in America.
When he went on his extended trips into the wilderness he carried three things. A short Tomahawk, a fixed blade and a small 3 inch folding knife.
Around 1900 to 1904 it looks like his design went commercial ( see Advert ) , I have know idea how successful these were.
The design is still copied today by the likes of Bark River and many other.
I got asked to build this so here is "my " version of a Kephart.
Full grind, double liners, 14c28n , brass pins and lanyard , 5 inch blade. Attachment 132031Attachment 132032Attachment 132033
