    Small Ontario knife

    I’ve been wanting a smaller patch/utility knife for my bag. I found this crusty old Ontario 3” paring knife in the garden shed and got an idea. It’s a half tang and I plan on adding two brass pins to secure the blade.

    butcher knife

    I scored an old butcher knife at a second hand store for a couple bucks. At first i thought it was an OldHickory but there are no markings other than the "forge" marks, and those don't really look the old hickry ones i've seen. Any ideas on the make? Thanks
