I have only posted a few knives here mostly in my responses to questions and to illustrate my points. This is the first kitchen knife I've made and so I thought I'd post it. Let me know what you think.

SMOKIN HOT knife there Del. Now what kind of burl is that handle? My guess is amboyna.
 
The blade is my horse pattern and the handle is some sweet maple burl I got from Mike Spangler.
The blade is 7 1/2" x 1 1/2" at the widest, its 12 1/2" overall.

That's a sweet looking blade, Del... are you planning on bringing that to Derrick's next week? I'd love to see it up close!

If I'm traveling this is the first I've heard of it.
This particular knife has an owner already and will be shipped today.
Deker, You will have to wait until Ashokan to deal with me.
Thanks Guys

Very nice! I still haven't touched the serpent I got from you. Decided I wasn't going to start anything else until I finished up the 5 or 6 that I have on the bench right now... Sweet work though!

Mike really get his hands on some very nice maple burl. The stabilized maple I've gotten from him is very dense, and always has a nice pattern.
