Thanks for putting them inline Andrew

Very nice job! The semi-frame handle is nicely done.

Thank you Stacy. It's not quite a frame handle design though. Here is an image of all components before assembly. It should give you a idea how the handle was made.

I agree with Stacy. While it's not a traditional frame handle, it is somewhat of a semi-frame, at least at the bolster area. Pretty cool, and not something you see very often. I like the "birds eye" pinning too.

Thank you Andrew. Next one I am working on is from 52100 and slightly bigger blade with similar handle design.

I really like the unique style of that knife. Very visual but very well done.
