Merry Christmas, magnum.
The knife is very nice. Looks to me like a rolled or appleseed edge. Is it? Post some specs.

How many knives have you made? However many, you should keep making them. They will get better and better.

Magnum,
I never used paper Micarta until my Lakeland neibor, Bill Simons made a rare (he usually only makes folders)fixed blade using it. He brought the knife to my shop for a Kydex sheath. It was beutiful! Now I have my own sheet of it, thanks to Bill!

thanks neil, the stuff takes a fantastic finish if done by hand, finish it up with steel wool, the finest grade. i think it's 0000. it looks great. i like working w1th d-2, tough on my tools though.
 
GREAT looking knife magnum! I have used micarta before with super results and I like using d-2 also on occasion. Once again, good job!
 
Nice work, handle looks comfortable as well and D2 is always a great choice!

thanks, and yeah those handles are confortable. d-2 is a real pain in the butt to gring but cuts forever when your using it, so it's worth it.
