Something i finished some weeks ago and wanted to share with you (because everybody loves photos :D)

RWL 34, 59 HRC, satin finish, stabilized and dyed maple, homemade mosaic-pin, filework, kydex-sheath (not in the picture :)).

The first knife that i am overall satisfied with. Lays just perfect in my hands.
The stabilized wood is a dream to work with!! I will definetly use that more often in the future.

Very nice. Beautiful choice for the wood. That handle looks like it'd mold right into your hands.
 
Good work ! I really like the profile of this knife - simple but very functional. A truly beautiful selection of wood too ! I am not very fond of filework, but in this case it is neatly done and goes with the knife.

For a knife this pretty, a leather sheath would be more elegant, I think... ;) But thats only my personal preference. Jason.
 
wow, that wood is amazing, Wonderful work! My new desktop pic for awhile!

WOWOWOWOW!!!!!! That's fantastic. Your work has real blackwood flavor IMHO.

That handle is especially wonderful :cool:
 
Thank you very much for the positive feedback. :)

Probably a leather sheath would suit the knife much better, but i never dared to start to learn how to make leather sheaths.
However its on top of my "things to do"- list!!! :)
 
Beautiful! Hope you don't mind if I borrow a bit from your file work for a modified Tanto that I'm working on.
