This is "the only one" knife in my world.

About three years ago, when I mainly used two types of mopeds of considerable size, I rediscovered the fun of motorcycles. It's primarily as fun on a bike, day camp, occasional fishing And take a knife, I think it is the best fixed blade knife.

I don't have enough tools to call it a lifelong thing, but the only thing that came to my mind was the knife my dad made about 30 years ago when I was still in high school.

At that time, there was no such thing as convenient as the Internet, so I think it was customary to rely on books and magazines to make it and where to arrange materials, but at one point, I was reading. He decided to make the same design by looking at the picture of the knife in the magazine.

I relied on only one photo that did not include the size, so I looked at that photo, drew a drawing, purchased the steel material from the mail-order that appeared in the magazine, processed it, and then hardened it again by mail order. I think it took a long time to complete it. When I put it out and returned it, I polished it further and attached a blade. However, when I looked at the finished knife, it looked pretty good, so I remember being a little impressed.

I cooperated with making this knife because I provided the bag used in junior high school as a material for the leather washer of the grip part, cut it out like a washer, and made a distorted engraving. The other thing is to create a leather sheath. (It's hard to see in this photo, but the sheath I made the direction in which the blade fits is a southpaw specification. Even though left-handed people are not close to me ...)

Although it is such a knife since an amateur made it a hobby, the blade thickness is thick, and honestly, it is not suitable for detailed work. Also, for me, a day camp on a motorcycle, a smaller knife is the best. Nevertheless, after all, I still use it as a knife for batoning.

Now that my father is older, I don't think I'll ever have a chance to use this knife with him anymore, but as long as I'm fine, I'll use it more than ever and walk with him.
