I made a small drop point from RWL34, blue-black G10, corby rivets and stainless lanyard tube. It is hardened to aproximately 59-60 HRC.

And some blades. From the top:
1. Drop point hunter RWL34 - 4mm thickness, flat ground to the back
2. Warncliff neck knife RWL34 -5mm thickness
3. Drop point hunter with welded threaded rod for a tang - RWL34-5mm stock
4. Military blade - 65G steel (simillar to AISI 5160 spring steel) diferential heat treat, beadblast, and soon I will make an oxydation for prevent rust and give a little tactical look to it. I pre-ground and shaped the scales for it.

Thanks for looking. :)
 
Very nice knives. Clean grinds and nice proportions.

they look geat...are the holes in the handle area for lightening total weight, or more attachment options? Sorry, i still have a lot to learn guys!
 
AWESOME! Those looks absolutely perfect.
I just made my first couple and can't figure out for the life of me how you guys get such perfectly straight plunge lines(is what those are called?) towards the handle and for that matter such nice grinds all the way out to tip.

Another question, that little half circle cutout at the base of the edge near handle, are those for any practical reason other than looks? they look great, do you use a mill bit?
 
Thats very cool, so that metal guide you just run it across until it touches the platen on the grinder? SLICK!:thumbup:
 
Sticky, the cutout you're referring to is called a choil. There's some different schools of thought. I've done knives with and without. It makes sharpening a bit easier for some, but for others it creates a catch point. When I include them, I create them with a chainsaw file prior to heat treating.
