Remembering How to Handle a Knife
« on: August 20, 2013, 04:46:00 PM »
With my kick of forging Bare Bone Utility Blades, I decided to see if I remembered how to add a handle.  My personal carry is still handle less though...tippit

Three just finished...

Really like the damascus blade, Jeff!

Beautiful work!

Osage, dyed fiddleback maple and amboyna burl?

I like the minimalist design concept, the the handle scales are definitely more comfortable for me. Like them all!

Lin,
Most came from ideas at bear camp.  I'd throw a bunch of knives on the skinning table to get feed back...likes & dislikes  :)  All blue collar working blades.  Thanks for all the kind comments...tippit
