Hi all picked this Effile up the other day from another member, didn't like the plan standard handle so I did a little whittling n this is where I ended up much happier now.

Da-yamn! That's some tidy work there. Looks like something H.R. Giger would have made. Very nice and very organic looking.

Like Biker says, very organic especially with the colours in the wood, looks like it's grown there. A bit like what they wanted to achieve in the movie Existenz but didn't quite manage. The flow of the handle into the sweep of the blade with the flaired nostrils in the handle... Like it a lot.

Note, more I look at it it reminds me of Kevin O'Neil's artwork for Nemesis the Warlock.
