my latest

[ciulkwens]

tool steel, woden scales, brass pins, convex grind, finished at 600grit,acid etched, cut hairs and nails
I was inspired by Trace Rinnaldi, but nobody says that, so I guess I have managed to create my own style ...I hope

ANY comments welcome

Very nice! I really like the shape of the handle..............

Nice! I especially like the flare at the end of the handle. Excellent pictures as well.

I really like that design and the shapes you've used. The handle is intriguing and looks to be most comfortable - almost like the shape of a golok handle on the buttend.

Please take this as part of constructive criticism - the alignment of the handle pins looks a littel off and I suppose the grinds and finishing could be a bit cleaner. I could be wrong - thats what I am seeing in the pictures.

In any case, I think its a great design and while I can see the Trace Rinaldi connection - its only when you say it ! Keep it going ! Jason.

Great looking knife. Very utilitarian. Looks like a great user.
What are the over all specs?

The handle is intriguing but creates the impression that it will fit quite nicely in the palm of one's hand.
