Alright guys.

Got these three finished this week. Just thought i'd show them. :)

First is an SPB-1+ with reindeer antler.

Second is an SPB-1 with thuya burl. I really like this wood, take a lovely finish and looks alive when you move it in the light. The smell when your working it is lovely too, addictive almost :)

The third is my hunter model in 01 and with a scandi grind. Handled in Yew. Had a slight mishap shaping the handle on this one. When i was profiling it, our cat brushed against my leg, i lost concentration for a sec and caught the edge of the blade on the grinder. Only a little through the tape but it can be seen near the handle Its sharpened up well enough in that are though, just put it on the Tormek strop :). Luckily this wasn't a commission, i was just trying the design as a scandi. Did it work do you think?

Thanks for looking.

Mark :)

Nice work - they all look good to me.
You should join up as a knife maker here - $60.00 a year is cheap for what you get.

Have a great weekend,
 
Thanks guys :)
