Thanks for the complement RL! I think this is the best handle I have done yet. I am surprised just how much a small amount of material in the wrong place makes a handle feel....not right. I have about 3 blades that the grip profile could be a little more roomy in the spaces where your fingers wrap around.
I think I am ready to try my hand at upgrading to a knifemaker status and see if i could sell some.
As far as the wife letting me keep my blade, I could just say something like I think I need to stabalize the grain regrowth from becoming too active and just hide this in my shead
What is active grain structure anyway??? Sounds like a real issue though huh?
Thanks guys, I think I'll send this link to her at work today.......she will enjoy reading all the comments.
