Here we are choosing Handle Style

Mortised

Dang. I wanted to click carver style but clicked finger grooves by mistake. Better not give me any chad ballots come the next election.

 

[Joss]

Mortised too.

 

[Kevin Jones]

I like the look of a frame handle, and if constructed right makes a fine bowie.

If it is a user, the mortise tang is the way to go, and if it is more of an "art" piece I prefer stainless steel or damascus for a frame handle.

Best Regards,
