Thought I would share some of my work here.

First is a couple of Nessmuk's, larger one is 1084 w/box elder burl handle, smaller is some damascus I traded for w/redwood burl handle.

Last is a little guy meant for office EDC, O-1 with Mammoth ivory scales.

Finally is a picture of all of them with a ruler for size perspective

Thanks for looking,

Nice work Carl :thumbup: And you're right about "the little guy", he sure is a little one (I like it). Without the rule it is hard to get a perspective of actual size . Again...... Nice Work :)
 
Pretty! One thing I like about all three of those is that they could be scaled up or down to suit one's taste and they would still look and, I imagine, balance "right". Very classic :)
 
Yeah, the scale thing was important on the little one. I carry one the same size as that little guy daily, made by Andrew Garrett. It is a great little knife to have on you in the office to open things.

I drew that design out as the base to a kitchen knife set. Have a few 5.5" overall being worked out now for paring knives, have designs that look good for steak and chefs knives also, both warncliffe and drop point.

Glad you like them, will post when I get the kitchen set worked up.

Kerry, that specific ruler is probably older than some individuals here! I think that one dates from the mid-70s.

Yessir...it has a fuller the full length of the blade and it is chisel ground. Definately from the 70's. :thumbup: :D
 
And it has the holes so you can mount it to a yardstick easily in a survival situation where you have to slap a knuckle or two.
