This one I was able to finish up while some epoxy was drying on a customer knife. I have had it on the back burner for quite a while, and it felt good to finish it.

It is 440C with African blackwood.

I had it Rockwell tested and it came in at 58. I was happy with that.

What do you think?

It is a real toss up between the black wood and micarta for a handle you do both so well. Very nice :thumbup:

I really like what you do on your handles the file work and shaping, nice presentation, can't wait to handle one, it will be fun!
