So here is a knife that I've made a while ago.
All started with Kershaw Echo that I've bought thinking about replacing the scales with some exotic wood. But the knife turned out to be too heavy to my liking and I decided to modify it more seriously: turning it into a hidden tang and changing the blade to something bit more persian.
The handle is of walnut with a piece of bubinga. Here are the pictures:

Thanks for looking and appreciate your comments!

There is another one: why to create more threads right!
So this one made with Helle carbon steel laminated blade, stainless bolster, curly birch and a piece of palisander wood.
Just a small one: did not even make a sheath for it.

I keep finished handle in butcher's block oil for a day, then wipe it more or less dry (it will never dry properly anyway) and cover it with Teak or Danis oil a couple of times and then finish it off with another two or three coats of shellack.
