The third blade, actually the first completed isn't in that style.
It is all stag.
Stag rules.
Here it is (bottom).
I thought I was being so original and designing the absolute knife.
Turns out I reinvented the SwAK, but prettier.
Group shot?
Well...
I'll have to take another. This is two projects short.
Missing is the latest and this blade from Texas knifemaker supply
The handle you choose doesn't have to be fancy or exotic.
The white handles are "French Ivory" or cowbone. Very easy to work and they look good too.
The little carving knife in the group shot has a piece of broken hammer handle on it.
In fact a hammer handle is a super way to start.
I've seen a couple of fine looking blades wearing hammer handles that were sanded and contoured to shape. As well as a couple that had minimal work, that still worked
Just remember, safety first and wear your respirator mask.
