Curly skinner
« on: November 16, 2011, 10:50:00 PM »
I do a lot of knives with synthetic handle material. So sometimes it is nice to step back in time and do something a bit more rustic.
This one has curly bastogne walnut handles (looks holographic in hand!!), a fileworked spine and hammer textured flats. OAL is 5.5" of L6, with a 2.750" blade.
Let me know what you think.

This one and most of my small/medium sized knives are made from 1/8" L6 saw steel.
