Butterscotch, oranges and cream- Small pocket fixed blade

[phorizt]

Well I'm not sure if those are what these material colors are actually called but that's what it looks like to me and makes me hungry for some dessert. I've made a couple of these small fixed blade pocket swaybacks with wharncliffe blades previously but this one has a different blade design.

O1 blade- 1/8" stock
Paper micarta bolster with linen micarta scales. G10 liners.
Stainless hardware.
5.75" OAL
first knife with a satin scotchbrite finish
first one that will have my name etched instead of stamped initials

Feedback welcomed and appreciated. Thanks for looking! Sorry for the iPhone photo quality.

It will be getting a pocket sheath similar to this although I can't decide whether to do it in black or a brown/mahogany color:

Thanks guys.

here are a couple of her siblings I finished up this weekend:

These little knives are a lot of fun to make.

I'm thinking of doing some small pocket puukkos similar to these swaybacks. Should be fun.

The handle is kinda like a Sowbelly.

I really like the natural flow of the lines in these. Great color combos, overall just beautiful to look at, & appear to be great workers. Thanks for showing them

How do the "upside down" handles feel in the hand? Really sweet little swoopy blades w/a tastefully matched handle materials. Very nice!

I'm probably biased but I really think they're quite comfortable in the hand. They're pretty small though and I'm not sure a much larger knife with this type of handle would work too well.

Here's the latest one I'm working on finishing up too:

this is my pocket kwaiken in thunderstorm kevlar, shadetree grass herringbone and black G10 liners. O1 blade is about 2.5" long.

Those are really sweet little blades, how much are you asking for the kwaiken?

 

[SugarSkulls]

That turned out quite nice Aaron. That herringbone is really nice.
