Latest knife
« on: March 20, 2008, 05:07:00 PM »
I made another one. I made one very similar to it a couple weeks ago and ended up trading it. I liked it so much that I made this one in the same design.

It has a Cedar handle spacer and Osage slabs with zebra wood samwhiched between two thin layers of cedar.On one side of the handle the osage has tons of worm holes in the white wood. I like the way it looked on the last knife so I used the wormy wood again. I filled them with CA glus and finished it. I think it looks pretty neat.

I still need to finish sand and polish the blade but here are some pics.
