[@bushcraft_in_the_north]

[@cha5]

That McLane Bowie is a true beauty, I just love the stories behind these vintage Bowie’s.

[@PhilBaumhardt]

A lot of great details in this video! I really liked the wear on the handle of the McLean knife, and the blacksmith hammer marks on the early fighting knife. Thanks for sharing this, Darryl!

[@Bawidamann2.0]

Very interesting 👍

[@CuttingEdgetools]

Another cool Knives of Note Video 👍Awesome Collection Corky. The primitive Bowies are sweet-especially the Big Hefty. The Hawk looks to be a early ice hatchet, but those were sometimes carried and used as a spike hatchet/Hawk.

Velvet Underground.

[@TylerSnyder305]

I'm pretty sure that's a small ice axe and not actually a fighting hawk.

[@oldschool3484]

Hard to say, I thought the same thing about the Hawk, but one never truly knows. Cannot be proven either way, especially when one is that old. Also, the longer handle gives me pause to its use as a weapon.

[@kennethcrane9848]

not porcupine quills?

[@fettmaneiii4439]

carved the top as a blade catcher lol. its just a spot for your thumb dude

[@Solemngolem]

Tin snap buttons like that weren't invented until 1885. So...where does that leave us with that sheath?

[@TylerSnyder305]

And I am pretty sure the " tomahawk" is actually a small ice axe, so I question the knowledge of this man.

[@crisdeeming2758]

Modified .

[@Solemngolem]

Also, it was porcupine quills that were used on the sheaths, not bird quills. That first sheath looked like it was adorned with seed beeds
