I just cut out the outline for my 3rd knife- any ideas/ suggestions you all would give? I'll keep this updated as I go (but it might take some time).

1095 steel
3/16 thick
1 1/2 wide
8 3/4 OAL

Or click here to make it bigger

Thanks for the help!

looks good, i would drop the nose a bit to give it a drop pointlook and also mellow out the edge curve. like this, sorry don't mind that crappy drawing i have one broken hand and 2 busted fingers on the other.

I agree with Jarod. Maybe drop the handle a tad, too. I find a really straight-backed handle kind of uncomfortable.

Thanks for the suggestions- I'll take those into account, and you'll all see the finished product soon enough (with any luck).

I would do what Jarod said and what James said. By curving the handle, I'd do something sort close to this shape.

i was thinking about saying something about the handle but if to much curve is put in then the handle becomes to small
