First try at knife making!
« on: January 20, 2011, 06:51:00 PM »
This is my first attempt at knife making,
I've done a lot of reading here on the forum and had some great direction from a friend. The OAL is 7", blade length 3.5" and the scales are spalted ash. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun in the process!

Looking good, but you have to post more pics to show off your first work.

Warning this hobby gets expensive!

Bring that to the Trad league Big Mike. You can use it to cut a piece of crying towel off from Halverson's   ;)   You definetly need to post more pics. Looks great. Would make a super survival knife on a submerged bowfishing boat!
