Hey, just thought I'd post a couple pics of the knives I"ll be working on next week, and see what people would like to see for the handles on them.
Top is a damascus clip point, I have two of them to make
Top left is a skinner, got the pattern from a friend, the last two pics is a finished one. I really like this knife with the horizontal sheath. I have 8 blanks cut out of this one
Top right is a razor, it has the same handle as the skinner but the razor shape blade. I made four of these blanks, they should be interesting to make
Bottom left is a small drop point, I've made a bunch of these before but I'm out of them so I thought I"d make more.
And bottom right is the same thing, but with a clip point

So guys, what do you think? I'm a little nervous about the razor, but I think they'll turn out cool

Have a great evening guys!

Lookin good!Stag is never a mistake IMO.Ivory micarta looks good with damascus.I like that skinner with the horizontal sheath.Its kind of a modified sharpfinger.
