Stacked Leather tutorials?
« on: September 10, 2009, 10:35:00 PM »
I was able to get a couple Helle blades to start off my knife making career (well sort of, knife finishing is probably more correct as I'm not ready to make my own blades yet).

Are there any good tutorials or helpful hints on doing a stacked leather handle out there?  I would like to try it on one, and I've got some Myrtle wood that I've been hauling around for about 8 or 9 years that I will use on the other.  Thanks!

Hunting was hazardous, but at least it guaranteed the freedom of the individual.

There is no doubt that the onset of farming saw the end of leasure for the majority of people, who were destined to toil in the fields.

your welcome,  on the verge of having a crack at a knife myself.

Let us know how you get on.
