Your newest addition:traditionals of course!

I bought this Klein as a practice knife to see if I can actually build/modify knives. Definitely need to add a couple tools to make the various processes easier and more precise, but overall I'm thrilled with the results and will likely continue with more projects.

This is a crusty, slightly rusty electrician with fugly plastic covers. Typical Klein knife, all function no flair!

Now it's a nice 3/4 hawk with ebony covers.

Really nice job. 👍
 
I got this one in the mail from TXGatorbait today.

This one surpasses my expectations. It feels and carries like smooth bone, with the color and character of stag. Love it! Thanks so much Greg!
Great stuff all round, well done Greg. You have got a pearler there. I have one also in stag, but mine is so so and i'm not all that enamoured with it. But yours is fantastic.
 
My new galeam, from Knives of France.
Galeam meaning helmet, a reference to the trademark helmet of Sauvignat-Grimaud, whose NOS blades were found by Theirs-Issard and made into these friction folders.

Thanks so much! The previous one I had was ok. I was in love with the pattern but not the stag. It ended up as a gift to a buddy. This one is a keeper!

That’s good looking stag 👍
Thanks sir! I haven’t run into polished stag that I have liked better than this.

I was eagerly tracking the package’s progress, and was very surprised just now to find out it was delivered better than 24 hours early:

I logged in to tell you to start pestering the staff-ettes to get you your mail, but saw your post here - it seems they exceeded expectations as well :thumbsup:

I hope you find these pieces interesting, because I do - thrifty but solid fare from around the world.
