Finished Knife # 3
« on: January 21, 2009, 10:10:00 PM »
This my latest effort it's 7" OAL 3 1/2" blade previous life was a file.  Stained curly maple.  First try at wire inlay.  I made the sheath and bead work.  

   

Thanks to Jeremy for the wire and the chisels!


I hope the pic posts        :pray:

Beautiful knife.  That's way better than my third.  And I haven't been able to finish out a file knife yet.  They seem to keep warping!  

Great work.  Aaron
