My swap knife
« on: May 22, 2008, 07:28:00 PM »
Hey guys, I just finished my swap knife and wanted to share my attempt. It is made from 01, has a zebrawood handle, and my first attempt at making a sheath. My mentor Kevin Halverson will try to post pics right away. Thanks for looking.  owlbait  Mike Gerard

Nice work all around!  I use O1 as well and like how it holds an edge.

I got a pointer - send it to me - but it's too late for that since "The List" has been "generated". Nice job!
