That is very pretty. Great design. Very nice color combinations and decorative elements.
 
Beautiful work. Very cool engraving on the bolster.

I am always a bit stunned at how good mallee burl looks on a knife because growing up all we used it for was firewood (it burns REALLY well).

How did you find working with roo leather?
 
Thank you all for the kind words,much appreciated ;)
Chris ,it's alright, kinda like a deer chamois ,pretty sweet for the lining ;)
 
my only critique would be that, for hunting Aussies, I'd prefer a much larger knife.
 
had some leftover bits from the same stock ,so decided to use them and make him a little twin brother (Swarzeneger and DeVitto kind lol) O/A 165mm

that thing is too cool, love the work on the handle
 
really good knives. I love the grind lines and the pattern welding. The bolsters and spacers are cool, too! ah hell, I guess I like the whole thing.
