That is a beautiful knife!! I very much like full tang knives. It looks like it is well balanced in the handle to blade ratio. I just love that knife!

I do like that wood, what is it?

Very nice looking piece.

It is a stained curly birch, about medium quality. I would not use the very best for a first knife. Though this looks pretty good. The red liners are 0.8 mm, think I will put 0.4 on the next. Thanks for the comments.

I made a few more the same model, using different materials.
Thought it might be interesting to compare.

That is a nice design.

I agree - thinner liners would be an improvement.

What are the dimensions?
Is the blade flat ground?

Thanks
