That's a goodly work done on a lovely improved knife!

Is that a worker or a wall hanger now? :cool:

Thankyou! First one I've done like this with the Randall type handle.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the picture was the RMK #1... feel free to post pictures of any others that you have done :)

Hi,this one is a user for sure! Don't go much for wall hangers.
I made this up for a mate that likes the feel of the RMK 1-7 handle,but wanted the blade shape
of the MK2.I gave it to her yesterday for her birthday,needless to say she loves it!
Thanks for the query.:thumbsup:

Hi,this is the only Ontario I have done to date,but have done lots of rehandles over the years.
Recently I did this old Puma Bowie.She was a mess when I got it,even had a bent tang,this is the "before" shot.
 
And after!(Don't mind the marks in the sheath too much as I used scraps from the local saddlery shop.)She's rusted and pitted, nicked and scarred,but straight,tight,scary sharp and good to go for your next adventure to the great outdoors!:thumbsup:



 
Also did these a while back.Using the "brow tines" from some stag (Sambar I think) I made up these for some English table knives.The original handles were that celluloid stuff which was cracked and /or missing.Simple little project to do,very functional,and looks good as well.
 
Last but not least,as I don't wish to list everything I've done,that would take days!
English "steak knife" rehandled with an old .50 Cal shell.Blade steel is too soft to hold an edge very well,all the chromium will do that.:thumbsup:
