I unjammed the drawer on an old gas BBQ this afternoon, and found a rusty, dusty Old Hickory slicing knife. I don't even remember when or where I got it - maybe I inherited it from my parents. But I cleaned it up some with steel wool and a stone, and it took about five minutes with a diamond hone to put an edge on it that shaves hair.
I'm planning on buying or making a small shooting bag to go with my new Kibler Southern Mountain flintlock rifle; I believe I'll add a sheath to the strap or the bag and make this my patch knife.
When I get back to my shop, I'll wire wheel the rest of the heavy rust off it, and then add some sort of patina to cut down on the shiny and protect it a little...
