This is a knife I just completed, and my first post...







Let me know what you think.

Welcome to the boards Brandon!

That's a good looking knife. I'm sure it's comfortable to carry and use.

Would you mind sharing the specs? Length, blade thickness, steel, type of wood etc...

Thanks.

So sorry about that...
Steel: 1095 (blued)
OV LGTH: 7"
BL LGTH: 3.25"
Handle: Diamond Rosewood (composite), Loveless Bolts, Nickel Pin, and Mosaic Pin
Sheath: I handmade the sheath from black leather.

I made this knife for my grandfather. I left the handle thicker than usual to accommodate his needs. Thank you for viewing!

No worries.

It may just be the grain of the wood, but is the handle contoured to be a bit thicker towards the rear?

I'm sure your grandfather will love it.

Welcome to Blade Forums Brandon.
Looks like a cool little EC.
I look forward to seeing more of your knives.

The handle gets thicker towards the rear. I wanted it to set nicely in his palm during use; however, the thinner section will allow for more delicate work. I will try to get a photo of that up. Thank you for the questions.

Looking good Brandon. Can't wait to see it in person. I'm liking your attention to detail.
