That looks fantastic. I would love to be able to do filework like that. I practiced a bit on some scrap, but I couldn't keep my file from wandering. What did you use to fill in the space between the filework and the scales?

i let the epoxy fill the holes. i then ground some and i have found that the steel dust colors the epoxy black. you can buy dies for the epoxy also.

thanks

You've really come a long ways in a short time. The finish looks great, and the filework is very nice. Thats a hell of a lot of work to get those 2 parts right on a knife that size. I like the overall shape too, keep up the good work

That's a monster of a bowie, cool file work too. I figured out a long time ago I have no buisness doing file work.
