I haven't posted here in a while but here's a new EDC Skinner, about 6 3/4" OAL with SS Bolsters and Padauk. You just don't see enough bolsters anymore for some reason. I don't know if it's weight or lots of extra labor but I like the traditional look.

Looks great John. I have tried making some with bolsters because I too like the look. How are yours attached? Pinned and silver soldered? JB Weld?
So far I've attempted silver solder. Again, knife looks awesome!
 
Thanks for the nice comments guys I really appreciate it. J J Lensmire yes it's pinned and JB Weld, with extra holes in the blade for epoxy bridges. There's an active fellow on here who uses JBWeld and an old Bruce Bump WIP as well, if it's good enough for him....
