I "made" a knife!

[DIYknife]

The blank is the "Falcon Drop Point" model from Texas Knifemaker's Supply and the handle wood is Desert Ironwood. I made the handle thicker than it looks like it should be, but it feels good in the hand.

Nice, using it will no doubt be rewarding

How do you round off the lanyard hole?

You can use a countersink if you have one. Or sharpen a dowel and place a pice of sand paper between the dowel and lanyard hole.

I like the look of your handle. I too, prefer a thicker than "aesthetically pleasing" handle on my knives.
