A knife for vermonster13
« on: January 23, 2009, 04:07:00 PM »
I finished this knife awhile ago and am just now getting around to finishing the sheath.

A fairly faithful interpretation of a Schrade Sharpfinger with ebony and nickel silver trimmings

 VERY nice Jeremy    :notworthy:

It IS better than the original. Their handle was too square for me.  I really think it's a great pattern. Lib

I agree with you there Lin. The handles always needed some rounding to get right. Jeremy looks to have done it beyond right first try.
