Just Finished This One.

i4Marc · Oct 6, 2014

Just finished this one. It's going out to my first official customer. My brother bought different knife from me (a 5" hunter) but I'm not sure that counts. This one is similar to a knife I posted a while back that I made for my mother. 6" blade made from Aldo's AEB-L. Handle is stabilized California Redwood from Burl Source. Stainless pins. Let me know what you think.

I think it looks GREAT. Great steel choice....great looking wood (I love fiddleback and crotch patterns). The overall design looks really good, too. Loving the pin placement. Everything about it screams top notch.

Looks great buddy!

Very nice! I'm sure your brother will love it.

Looks fantastic. What was the stock thickness?

i4Marc · Oct 6, 2014

Fletch, Thanks. This one isn't for my brother. He bought a hunting knife a while back. This one is for someone else.

Maelstrom78, Thank you. The spine is .095 by the handle.

Very nice. So thin!

Any hidden pins?

Looks like quality ! Frank

Great job I really like the 3 pins.

i4Marc · Oct 6, 2014

PT Doc,

Yes. There are hidden pins. I used threaded stainless rod for those. There are also glue holes/chambers and roughed up mating surfaces all bound together with System Three T-88 epoxy.

Thanks guys.

Nice job i4marc. Love the whole look of the knife. I am sure your brother will treasure it.

Thanks FP. This one's for a different gentleman.

Classy, and the 3 pin layout is different. I like it a lot

Number 22!!!! You've been busy! Looks great Marc.

Thanks buddy! 022 means 22nd blade made but this is only the 10th knife I've finished. I have a bunch of blades waiting around to be finished knives. I don't finish them in order.
