I went back to work today and couldn't get this out of my head. I saw a few miniatures on another forum and got a little obsessed. I got out my tiny torch and went to town on an old heavy circular sawblade. Got it workable and shaped then headed inside to finish up in the warmth of the house and my silver bench.

It is hardened and tempered, baleen, pewter and walrus ivory.

1/2 oz, 13g.
2 7/8", 74mm total
1 9/16, 40mm blade
1/2", 12mm width
1.3mm thick









The components



This little guy gave up a couple legs for the project. I didn't want to make a mold and cast spacers just for this little knife.



Ready for a lot of hand sanding and polishing.



I've still got a little fine shining and final sharpening to accomplish.
