This was a stainless blade I  bought. I made the scales and polished it up, still in the learning process!
I do have some other blades I made and still trying to get it all figured out, that I'm working on right now.

Nobody ever has to worry about competition from me I tell you!
I'm still a dummy!   :knothead:

It's all part of the learning process, I'm sure you benefited and learned something completing this project.

I haven't used tulip wood in quite a while, but at one time I had a fair amount. Love it. Dense, takes a beautiful polish and people always asked what kind of wood it was. I understand they grow REALLY tall. I like that knife.
