Sorry to start a new thread but i couldnt find the other one.:confused:
Anyway here is my fourth after a few changes thanks to input from you guys.
Thanks again for all the help:D:thumbup:
Please dont hesitate to give me more.
I put more radius in the bolster/handle area as well as the back of the handle, also i filed down the ricasso to make the choil look a little better, (although it is still too far in front of the plunge, but not much i can do about that)

Oh BTW just as i was coming out of my shop with this one a neighbor stopped and made me an offer on the spot!!
Looks like Cochran Knife Works is officially in business!!
 
I must say, you took a step in the right direction with this one. The bolsters look better now, as does your ricasso/choil transition.

Now quit playing with it, and go work on the next one!
 
If you don't mind me asking, how much did you get for it? And how much in materials did it cost you? And hours spent?

Got $75 for the knife with no sheath. As for cost of materials, the blade steel was given to me by a friend, micarta and pins I think were about $10? from Tracy at USA supply. I have about 8 hours in it best I can remember.

Fourth!? Man your on the way, I would never have guessed that was only your fourth, maybe 40th!

I like the overall look and I bet that handle is comfortable.
