I changed the handle on this one to a knapped look. I use a very small wheel for the sides, then the 2" idler wheels at alternating angles for the face.

I saw something similar at a video on scalloping handles by Chris Wilmont

Just finished this 9.5” (15.75” OAL) k-tip .100 AEB-L (62.5 Rockwell). Scales are cocobolo and Ebony with a Tiffany blue liner.

That'd be fantastic, thank you!

Ok so it's 8" blade and around 4.75/5" handle depending on where you want to say it starts. .100 at the spine with a distal taper starting about halfway down the blade. I haven't done the final sharpening but the edge is pretty darn thin. Maybe a couple thousanths. 2" at the heel.

Thank you for this info! Appreciate it. I want to try my hand at something similar.

The hard corners are awesome. The blue liners really stand out. Combined....that's just beautiful.

jury-rigged small wheel attachment. The bearings are from a mountain bike rear suspension linkage and the axle is from a front wheel I think, It might be from a rear suspension linkage too

Those are near perfect. Every time I think micarta is boring I get schooled. I love K tips but am never sure about putting one together and looking right.
