Cool knife! I've wanted to make a knife for a while. Your work is very encouraging.

Looks real nice, I like the handle contours :thumbup:

I love this. It looks so nice.

My first knife (it was a failure and did not finish) was also a saw blade.

Congratulation and thank you for sharing.

i still need to clean the edges a bit, but other than that it is pretty much done.

Looks like a fantastic user - and a very efficient cutting tool. The sheath turned out nicely. That picture of the knife on top of the frozen creek is great!

Thanks for sharing, and all the best,

First knife? Looks really, really nice for a first knife. You obviously have a talent. I'm looking forward to seeing future knives you make.

Very nice work, BF. Not only the pride of ownership, but also the pride of manufacture. You can't beat that. :thumbup:
