Test pic #2 Amboyna Burl neck knife in 440-c

[misque]

Here is a neckker I made for my wife on her birthday. It has a 3 1/8" 440-c blade and Amboyna Burl scales.

Thanks for looking.

edited to correct blade length description.


All the best,

Very nice. Handle looks really comfortable and I always love a wide, flat ground blade.

Thanks Zenghost!
The handle is definately comfortable. Even on such a small knife(3 1/8" blade 6 7/8" overall length) with the thin scales it seems to sit in the hand just right.
I like the design so much, I made a sheath knife version of it with just a little longer blade(3 3/4") and slightly thicker Olive wood scales for myself. It's proving to be the perfect small hip knife. It doesn't draw a lot of concerned looks from the more timid citizenry and is still large enough to handle most everyday cutting chores.


Thanks again!

All the best,
Mike U.

It looks like you could cut up a storm with that knife. The handle looks like you could get a really secure grip on it and I am another that likes a wide blade. Very nice.

Thanks Keith! I've got a love affair of sorts going for wide full height flat ground blades now and have to indulge that urge for awhile.


Take care and all the best,
