Wow Mike:eek: That is a beautiful blade. Looks like a tapered tang, and differential heat treat (sorry didn't read any specs), is it???

i don't think he tapered the tang on this one.... and is far as i know, it isn't differential heat treated...

i can't wait to get this guy....:D
 
actually thats a yes to both, tapered tang and i differential heat treat everything i make

you can't hardly tell but i used black spacer material also
 
Stephan,

Great work!

I have a question. Did you drill the holes before or after you glued up the scales????
 
i drill the holes first, then use the pins to index the scales while i polish the bolster face of the scales
 
Very nice looking blade you are getting mtnfolk mike. You gotta post a review on it once you get it and use it!
 
Really nice looking knife.

I'll grant I must be a nitwit but I don't understand how the blocks work. What is the file guided against? Also, I didn't see the knife price. I am very curious about that also.
