After 3 years I am finally able to get back to making knives. Although a little rusty, here are my first 4 projects.

4 inch rosewood drop point hunter
4 inch cocobolo drop point hunter
Integral desk top tanto
integral desk top gents knife

Thanks for looking

Well it looks like you have a great reintroduction. The first two are very simple and appear to be excellent using knives. The others definately have a touch of flare! Keep at it and keep sharing with us.

Thanks

Love the desk top tanto. Might make a great leather slicer.

Those don't look like knives made by someone that is rusty. They look good to me.

Thanks all, posted a few more pics, this is also the first time I've made display boxes, I kinda like them.

Thanks again

you should be proud; even after all that abuse, this knife is still awesome. One of my favorites in fact.

I am glad the knife serves you well and goes beyond its intended purpose
O-1 has always been one of my favorite user grade steels
