Through the grades on sand paper down to 1200 (what the local paint store had) and it has man applications of linseed oil and rub with a good cloth. :)

Not too sure as I have not measured the blade but it is 10 cm long.
The wood is artic birch (swedish kit) and the rest is riendeer antler and leather that I got from a local furniture shop (via a friend) from a smple book for leather sofas. The leather is only thin so no use for a sheath for instance. :newbie:
