Thanks for sharing Will, great build along. Makes me want to make another WIP myself.
And the knife ain't too shabby also.

some great clean lines - love the handle contouring, the drop and the way it kicks in. It's nearly like an eagle/pistol grip. Must feel great in the hand.

The working process of the knife is very great, like!:thumbup:

 

[islandblacksmith]

some great low-tech/hand-tool-oriented approaches to super clean and crisp work...slick handle contours too!

 

[Will Morrison]

Thanks for the comments, guys.

How did you sharpen this beast?

I did the final sharpening with stones in 1200 and 6000 grit, then stropped with some buffing compound.

That's very interesting and a very fine knife.

How long does it take to make something like that?
