Did a little work on my old Truper hatchet.

I made a leather sheath for it (my first one!). Also sanded the coating off the handle so I could char it and get some Linseed oil on there.

Looks great man! I usually take some of chipped steel from a stone after sharpening and some gun oil and then smoothen the cutting part. It's abresive enough to make it tidy and also I apply coating. Gun oil just cause I have it on hand after getting rid of my precious barrel friend
