Hello everyone,

Here is a knife I finished last night. Blade is 52100 with mustard patina, RC 62
Handle is an oval wa handle with dyed orange curly maple on top of synthetic ferrule. The handle tapers out towards the butt in all directions. Feels better to me. I'm pretty sure no one has ever done a ferrule like this before on a chef's knife. It is a material called ShokRes.

Thanks for looking









 
This is a beautiful piece! I really like how you did the handle and the blade looks awesome! :thumbup:

I love your work man. And I love how when you do something you pay attention to the little things and to trying new "little things", the handle tapering out toward the butt. I don't know if that makes sense, but I just like your attention to working on and improving the details.
 
Thanks guys. Glad at least a couple of people like it.

Makes sense Camber. You should see how many blades/handles/stuff I've trashed over the years trying to get the little things working.
