I have neen making a couple of knives for a member on BB but have taken while but here they are.
Well here they are finished and they were posted off today the owner of one of them.

They are Nielson Blades with Olive wood (from te guys own olive trees) and Copper bolsters with a black spacer and a wet formed veg tanned sheath and a wooden button.

This one is quite Knotty.

Damn that olive is nice! I've never seen olive with so much grain running through it, I'd love to get my hands on some of that. Real nice tidy job on the knives, and the sheaths are something else. Someone's going to be real happy with those!
