something new again... #13

[jester]

Just wanted to share this one.

I made it for my father, who is going to spend a few days in the mountains next weekend, and i didn't want to let him go without a good knife.

#13

Length overall 9", blade 4.5", thickness 0.160"
D2, 60 HRC, satin finish.
Handle ist Wenge with red fiber.
Filework over the whole back of the knife.

I haven't used wood as a handle material a lot, but i am planning to do so!

Very nicely done, beautiful file work. Keep it going.

 

[Guy Thomas]

Very nice and clean, and looks to be a good user! Just the way I like them.

 

[Gib Guignard]

Nice and it will be handy in the field. Gib

Nice job. I realy like that filework. You don't see wenge used too much. I've used it and it makes a nice handle. Nice liner accent, too.

Your father will be proud to carry that knife. Very nice filework, finish, profile, handle,... Get the picture? I Like It! You can send the next one to me! Also, very accomplished for #13, you have the required patience and a good eye. Keep it going for sure. My #13 is nearby and nowhere near that nice.

Oh Yeah! That's my kinda knife. The finish, shape, size, everything.

Mind if I steel the design!? (Less the filework. I could never do that.)

Thanks for the kind words!

@itrade: Go ahead. I dont think, the design is something special. Simple and straight.
The knife was planned as a user, but i also wanted to make it look less boring, so i spent at least 4 hours for the filework...

very nicely done, your father will be proud of it and show it more then use it probably, but when he does( use it) it should handle the task easily.
