Hey everyone.

This is the 6th knife I've recently completed using a 1x30 belt grinder I bought last year for around $25.

5160 steel, hardened and tempered to around 60HRC. Full flat grind with false edge on the spine.

Segmented handle scales with figured Beech and Ironwood, with black and white G10 spacers. White G10 liners on the handles.

2 Carbon fibre pins and a brass pin for contrast keeps everything secured. This is also the first blade with my makers mark!

Thanks for taking a look!

Nice work!
My first grinder was a 1"x30", too, back in the mid 90s, but it took me way more than six knives to start making anything with a minimum of quality.
