Here's my second knife, this one I forged.

I made my first knife, all stock removal tho

Finally forged something!

Ouch, ok.

ok, so it probably isn't worth selling?

the 5/8 symbol and that one piece of the guard that was broken almost makes me think it was a small bayonet? Could be wrong though. it does seem to be a bit short for a bayonet.

I did a little research on fillet knifes but don't see any with a drop point or a clip point like mine

the thickness is about 3mm

This is a knife that I found at a antiques store but I don't know what kind it is. Any help is appreciated, Also I might be looking to sell it depending on the price. Here is a link to something I thought it might be, but I never got much farther. austrian bh knife wwi - Google Search sadly, the guard is in pretty bad shape but I'm confident someone could fix it up.

I finally made it to the blacksmith meeting! I was also able to find someone who was willing to let me go to his shop on occasion.

That's true. All I've made so far is a flat nail.

I wish my Dad would realize that

I am definitely planning to go to the meeting, but I thought that it would be a good idea to get as much advice as possible before starting. I needed that

Mostly I want a lot of recommendations for coal forges. I am sorry if I'm being too vague, but I just want to get as much information as possible.
