I love yew! ... File carver

[ex-member Raikey]

Yo!!

Just made this little carver out of a slither of file,

Rather than spend too long grinding I got it down to 2 mm by hammering it,

So it's attained a hammered finish too,...

Stuck it to a bit of yew and there we go,...

Had a scrap of leather too, so I made a rubbish sheath as well .
