Throwing knife
Kid sketched a throwing knife and I cut it out for him of 1/8 plate. Put a point on it (no edge) and he wrapped it in 12G stranded. He did the finish grinding and disk sanding on the mill scale. Not a lot of heft but it does stick in a cardboard box he throws at (and once in a tree with me throwing). Can sink it 4 of 5 times now from 10 feet. Good afternoon project. Next one I will quench blade in oil, "forged in iron" style.
