SECOND COMPLETED KNIFE
« on: January 03, 2011, 11:13:00 PM »
here is my second knife.  the oal is 7-3/8" and cutting edge is 3-1/2". scales are curly maple with a tung oil finish. the steel is an old file and my first attempt at simple file work on spine turned out good.  pins are just brass rod, not peened though.  over all im happy with the quality but always striving to be better and faster while acheiving the same amount of quality.

Good looking piece  :)  You polished the bajeezers out of that blade!  Might need my sunglasses!     :saywhat:   What kind/brand of file did you use?
