Blacksmithing: Forging a Drawknife

Some time back, my dad asked if would make him a drawknife, well only a couple of years later and I've finally gotten around to it!
A draw knife is used to make all sorts, but probably most useful for making handles, a task at which it excels. In fact after trying this one out I plan to make another for myself.
The metalwork is all forged in one, from an old farrier's rasp.
The handles were made from a lump of oak, from a tree I coppiced myself.
The little ferrules on the handles are cut from a scrap of copper pipe.
