I posted this one earlier but it belongs here too. Opinel No. 8. hand tools only. Sanded to 2000 polished with leather strop. Inlays: Jatoba, water buffalo horn. Patina work: vinegar followed by mustard for the stripes. Aloha! Msturm
Nice job!This is my first attempt at rehandling a knife. The original celluloid handles on this older Keen Kutter had started to outgas. Rehandled it in some tortoise shell patterned kirinite.
