Hi all i thought you might want to have a gander at my smallest real bush craft knife yet it took just as long to make as the full size knife especially with my bad eye site and shaky hands :( its been made exactly the same way and the same materials as its big brother the blade is carbon steel and as sharp as a razor blade if i had the choice off this knife and nothing i know which one id have I've included a couple off pictures the one pound coin shows the true size of knife and the one with is big brother . i tried to pull the wool over your eyes lads as i posted a picture in another thread of this knife but as full sizes one or to off you got close :D

Nice work! :D I've made a mini knife m'self, though I didn't have the patience to make a handle, so I gave it the blacksmith style handle instead - I tried but it was just too fiddly so kudos!

I've put these up before, apologies if you've seen them.
I was thinking what other bits of common "bushcraft" kit could turn out as a nice miniature?

Beautiful work. Keep at it. I knew a man when I was a boy that deer hunted. He gutted, skinned, and cut up his deer with a box of single edge razor blades and a hatchet. Just proves that you can do real work with minimal tools and good skills. One of my favorite knives is a neck knife with a 1.5 inch blade and 2 inch handle. Made it about 15 years ago and still use it,especially when fishing. Small knives have great uses.
That paperclip must be huge.:D
you should have seen the size of the 20p the made to make an axe look small :D
