Camp/chef knife

[Bailey Knives]

I made the straight blade with the idea of a camp knife in mind. It is based loosely on a kershaw model (very loosely). now that it is done (minus the sheath) it looks like a kitchen knife. The steel is a bit thick for kitchen duty, more suited for outdoors work. It does have a nice hamon, I think my best hamon so far.

This will, someday, be moved to the for sale area once I get a sheath made. Now it is just for lookin'.

Let me know what ya think.

Very nice, what is it made of??

1075 with curly maple scales.

Should have put that in the original post

Hasn't got the usual rugged knife look of yours but still looks very useable, and good size both blade and handle, IMO :thumbup:

I like the version of filework, nice!

It was a variance from what I normally do. I like it, but wish that I could make the hamon show up better in the pictures. It is really bold in reality. I am still working on the whole picture thing.

Wow that's really nice. I love the handle shape and anything with a hamon is awesome! Nice Work!
