I get a couple days off and what do I do! You know it!
The top knives are just rough patterns to give to Bryan so he can wet form my sheaths. The bottom two are a new pattern, The willowcrafter! I liked the blade shape of the willow camp so I decided to shrink it to a 4"er and scale down the handle

I like the willowcrafter blade shape quite a lot, but that section just before the edge to protect the fingers really limits the usefulness of the knife. With such a contoured handle, is there really a need for that?

Well, it depends who you ask! I like minimal guards myself but most prefer them. I will knock those down some when I get wood on them. I dont usually dinish that part until I sand the handles flush to the tang.
 
Daym Chris, I am really liking that 3rd one from the top . . . . ;)
All look good, can't wait to see some of them "all dressed up" . . .
Be safe.
