Two new additions to the lineup for the Reno gun show this weekend (unless someone talks me out of them first)- I'm pretty happy with how these came out.

A straight spined bushcrafter, done in ironwood this time. Brass pins and I blued the spine, matches well with the forge finish on the flat of the blade. Convex- 9.5 OAL with a 5 1/8 inch blade of .095 15N20.

Expedition style sheath.

And a Leuku- convex ground, 1/8 inch L6 12 3/8 OAL with an 8 1/4 inch blade. Forged bolster and butt cap, same steel. Peened tang pin, the tang is 3/4 to 1/2 inch wide through most of the handle, shouldered to 1/8 for the pin. Lacewood handle is also epoxied.

Sheath on this one came out really sweet, it's just a linseed oil soak. koyote girl did a nice subtle job on it. Really gives it that scandihoovian look.

Wow, nice knives. I really like that bushcrafter design and the ironwood handle. Someone at that Reno show gonna come away a happy owner.
 
I like them better every time I see them. And they are getting even more interesting. I may have to bother you for another ... :)

something long and skinny, about 6 inches of handle with a 9 inch slightly curved blade? for cutting......vegetables, of course? :D

thanks all you all. As soon as I get a couple orders, a show, and the wedding set done i should be doing some kepharts. And I'm working on a few of the bushcrafters with a 3/4 inch through tang. Bit of a pommel for hammering.
 
Fantastic. Love the first one, the sheath is perfect.
 
Man, Christof, I really like that Leuku. That is a GREAT looking knife bro.
 
Great stuff Christof...I love the leather!

Oh man I cant wait to get my hands on them keppys.
