BK16 WIP, including some homemade burlap micarta

That looks great man! Love the contour and the liners. Looks super comfy, I like skinny handles. Well done!
 
thanks guys. i appreciate it. i handled it some more last night as i tried to clean up the blade a bit. and, i've taken another look at 'er this morning. it's growing on me. the balance is nice, and skinny or not, it's still comfy. ;)

heading fishing in a few minutes and will bring the ol' 16 with me. i'll get some pics.
 
Ask me you did a fine job. How it feels is much more important then how it looks & it looks good.

yeah, that was the problem. i prefer a handle with thicker handles. BUT...like i said, i think it'll be ok. i will try to use it a bit and make an informed decision. thanks for the kind words.
 
and thanks for the reminder LG&M. i said i would post some more pics. wellll, i forgot the knife when we went fishing. so, from the steps will have to suffice for now....
