Pig sticker
« on: July 07, 2022, 09:31:38 PM »
I just finished up this little pig sticker. It’s my first hidden tang. There’s a few areas for improvement on it but all in all I’m pretty pleased with it.

Congratulations on a good looking knife.  What will you use for butt cap material? Nickel, Brass?

I was asked to stabilize the pith and leave it without a metal butt cap so I filled all of the pith with CA glue until it was 100% solid, rounded it off in all directions, wet sanded it to 3000-grit, and buffed it. It looks really clean and is 100% solid. The tang extends to about 3/8” in front of the end of the handle so it’s plenty strong.
