My last two knives

Thanks guys ! I'm glad that you like my work :thumbup:
@ wdtorque , it's nothing special, patience and a bit of work with minimal tool . Somehow filing relaxes me after a hard day work , almost as as I'm on fishing :)
Ok , here we are ....finished ! I like this one , really !! Carbon Handle come excellent and grip is fantastic . I have feel that nothing can pull out of hand . First well-soaked with very liquid and slow curing resin , next heat with heat gun to leak ? the excess of epoxy .. /now have not that nice deep carbon look , but grip is better/ next in home electric stove for one hour on 140 celcius tu cure .. But , because carbon is non-stretch I had to wind with high pressure and now I see that carbon pushed forward the guard ..And plunge line was covered with carbon .I do not know, I might be a little cut carbon forward to settle the line with grind . Now I'm thinking what kind of sheath to make ...leather or carbon one ? I made a several knive from 52100 steel but never have a chance to test them a little more . Now I understand why so many like this steel . It can be sharpen so easy to scary sharpness and hold pretty well that level ....and he bit me three times in half an hour today :D
I hope you like this one too :) My friend has no right to comment...And when now long time ago he settled in the USA, he worked several years as a butcher and he think that he know what is sharpness...we shall see that when he come over here :D

Best regards from Macedonia !

Real nice job on the blue handle one especially! I like the contrast of the brass liners too.

Thanks ! I like this one too , I have template and I think I will made one for me too .Here is another one , 52100 ,walnut wrapped with hemp thin rope and CA ...Nice looking handle is good for eye but practical handle is more pleasent for hand ....grip is fantastic on this one .I suggest everyone to try this...Now i need to decide which angle to sharpen ............
