Was going through dad’s knife draw in the kitchen tonight and dug this out of the back of the draw. It’s definitely carbon steel and I’m wondering if it’s an older Green River. Victorinox boner for scale
Any thoughts?![]()

It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
Got bored so made a push dagger for the cabinet, obviously it’s not ideal for hunting but fun to make.

I'm so pleased to see you back making knives. Life is good.

Nice looking filleter, what kind of wood are the scales made of?
Or you can stay within 300 yards and keep life a lot simpler.
Am I allowed to join in? I have been making knives for around 5 years. I am almost entirely self taught, and the stuff I made in the first year or two was pretty dodgy. This was one of my first better quality knives around 2 years in:
This one is inspired by the Half Face Blades Crow Scout. Full tang, flat grind blade in 3.8mm Elmax. Handle is camo G10, with G10 pins and carbon fibre lanyard tube.

This one is from early 2023. At the time it was the best knife I had made. The blade is a full flat grind in Elmax steel which I was using a lot at the time. Handles have G10 liners & pins and a carbon fibre lanyard tube. Handle material is an Australian native wood called "bendee" which has a hand rubbed finish. Design of this knife was very much inspired by the Bark River Gunny Hunter.
