I finished this up today, little knives aren't my bag, fingers are way to big for this finess work. Oal 5 1/4" w/2 1/4" blade, 52100, N/S pins and bolster, Bruce Evans dyed bone handle scales.

I agree, that does look real good! :D Did you ever track down that small pin material for inlay work Bill? Just wondering if I should break down and order the Rio Grande catalog?

Nice work, Bill. Is that a wee hamon I detect on that blade? Looks like it on my screen.
 
Sweet lil' knife, Bill! Big hands, little knife, big job, and really well done! And you still have all your fingers, too! You start making tie tac size, I am gonna call you the tweezer geezer!
 
Thanks everyone.

Darren, no, I haven't looked for any yet. I will in the short future.

I.G . I agree, its about like a tooth pick, I need to make a Bowie again.:D

JH, its not showing a harmon, thats just the way my sorry lighting system is, actually it would have a really good harmon if I etched it.

Thanks again all,

Bill
 
Looking good, Bill! I like!

Darren, break down and buy that catalog....tool lover's deelite!
 
Real sweetie Bill. Capon or EDC, I sure like it. There is more to small knives than meets the eye, huh.

Very nice Bill :)

Don't you guys know? Bill drop forges this size in one blow with a 10 lb. hammer ;) ;) ;)

That looks like a perfect litle user Bill.

Dig it! Bill that's just what the EDC Dr ordered. That's so well proportioned that if you hadn't put the dime alongside for scale no one would know it was a small knife.

You got me thinking, now I'm going to have to get my one brick forge out, my little 55 lb Chinese anvil, some nice O1, and forge my first knife...just like yours! I really like this one.

Dang, I'm going to end up going the voodoo steel road afterall, ain't I?... :D Don't tell Nick.

Thanks for sharing that sweet thang, Bill. I'm inspired!
 
Thanks again everyone, this little feller sure is a cute one. My good buddy Mr. Fitzgerald gets this one for being such a good advisor, his suggestions, opinions and generousity has helped me in my knife making journey beyond words. @%&@#*$@b :D Sheaths almost finished, should have it on its way very soon.
