This one is for me
« on: September 20, 2009, 09:49:00 PM »
Here is one i've been working on for about a month, 1095 steel, 6" blade and 11" OAL, handle is madue burl.
I made the finger guard from bar stock and used the thread that Mr. Lin showed us about installing finger guards,

 

 

 

Hope everyone enjoys
