Handles - paracord wrap , one in desert tan and the other in Olive greenDesert tan sold
Flat ground and satin finished
Sheath- 7oz. veg tanned leather with belt clip .

The olive handled one looks like it would be an excellent all around edc and utility knife. Nice work :thumbup:
 
Thank You TKNIVES .
I had a forum member write me with concern about the shape of the sheath for the olive green wrapped knife . I agreed with him so I made a new sheath to follow the blade profile .

Great worksmanship, that traditional tanto looks like a lot of fun. Just looked up 01 tool steel and it uses tungsten! Cool stuff.
