    I haven't posted too many things this year because I spent a lot of time racing. But I'm getting back to turning out projects. Just finished this little hunter in AEB-L for a return customer. Comments welcomed.

    Blade Steel: AEB-L, finished to 800X
    Blade Length: 3.5" edge
    Handle: Stabilized Burl Maple with stainless pins and red liners
    OAL: 8"
    Sheath: Hand stitched leather

    Nice knife! My experience with AEB-L has all been 100% positive. I love that steel, although I only have it in my leather knives right now. Speaking of leather that sheath is a terrific design for that knife and the execution is perfect
