Hi everyone

I started on this knife at the beginning of the summer. It took more time than I expected. I went on the trip with the kids meanwhile but I still gave it something like one month .. But I can say I'm pretty happy with the result. I hope you will like it too and see you with another knife soon

I'd say that is spectacular. And your photos exhibit great composition, too.

You have a very appealing style. Great work on the sheath as well. Are each of the sections of the bolster individually fitted spacers?

Sorry for the late response. I was attending my wedding this weekend a wasn't able to react any sooner

Thanks a lot, everyone! I'm glad you like it !

Yes exactly, it was three pieces. It took more than a couple of days to fit this guard tight ...

Adding the picture where it is still a bit rough but you can see the fit almost there. Adding the video too. It was slipping out from my fingers. That's why it looks like it don't fit and it is bent.. but on the tang, it was fitting perfectly of course
