Finished another today. I have 6 of this style and 4 finished. The next batch I'll mix them up not all the same style. Guess I'm wrong, as soon as I get the sheath finished and a little touch up and sharpen.

Nice , did you stretch the handle a bit over the first one you did ?

Love it bud !

Ha Ha, no, but I did get one stretched before I broke the handle stretcher. The next ones that I'm working will be about 3/8 longer between the guard and bird head.
 
VERY clean look, nice piece of ironwood and the mosaic pins look good too.

Can't tell from the picture, but a tapered tang would complete the fine features.

The next ones will all have tapered tangs and and dove tailed bolsters. These are the first knives that I'v made in seven years from scratch and I didn't have every thing set up yet.
Thanks, Art
