Handle it..

[brandoak]

Here is a few progressive pictures of a knife blade I put a handle on.

planning the knife out, getting ready to change the shape of things...lets make it a drop point....


Shaping the bolsters...



Test fitting and peening with JB weld..



Testing peen next to original pin stock to see expansion size, rough sand..



Fitting it all together and preparing for glue. Screws were shortened so I could add mosaic pins in the holes after the screws were set..






All done, mosaic dog paw prints pins for a dog lover...and blue..her favorite color! now time for a sheath!
