It has been a while since I got one done, so it is nice to post something besides "Hey, super knife!!". Anyhow, .093-.060 CPM154, 10" edge. 600grit machine finish, stabilized birch burl, gray spacer, stainless pins. Sheath is self explanatory. My leather work is still embarrassing. Looks nice from far away but up close there is no shock factor IMO. Sunburst dye job with acorn brown and fudge brown. Finished with resolene. The stuff was giving me fits, had to strip the finish twice, and eventually gave in and bought a touch up sprayer from Depot. Tons easier to avoid streaks and bubbles. Best $30 I have spent in a while. On to the eye candy...

Very nice. I like the flow.
Got to make one for myself. The fish I catch are to big for my filet knife. Ha Ha

That's quite a filet knife with beautiful wood! I think the knife and leather both look nice, and that's a tricky basketweave stamp to keep straight.

Well done!
 
Super fillet knife!!!:thumbup:
 
Really like the handle activity and the leather, blade is great also. Go catch some fish and put that thing to work!
