    Default Horseshoe Knife

    There's a guy out there making knives out of old horseshoes. He's doing it the old fashioned way, hand forging them with fire, hammer and anvil.

    Hand Forged Horseshoe Knife- Pony Shoe



    Here is a beautiful hand forged horseshoe knife, made out of an authentic iron pony shoe. It is made the old fashioned way with a forge and an anvil. It is hand forged, then heat tempered so it will hold its sharp edge. The blade is approx 4" long and the handle approx 2-3" in length making the over all length between 6-7". Since each knife is made by hand there will never be two that are exactly the same. This is a great little knife to put on your belt or to carry in a back pack. It comes with the sheath that has a loop for your belt. ▬ ▬ $95.00

    Hand Forged Rasp Knife



    Here is a beautiful hand forged horseshoeing rasp knife. It is made the old fashioned way with a forge and an anvil.

    Horseshoers or Farriers use Rasps to file down horse's hooves, similar to a finger nail file. This is what this knife is made of, the file. All the sharp edges of the file have been grinded down to make beautiful texture to this knife.

    Approximately 10-12 inches long.

    This knife is sharp! Always use caution when using sharp knifes! We are not responsible for any mishandling of these knifes! ▬ ▬ $150.00
