birch knife

[kalervo69]

Hi .
Here is my latest soon finished. The handle i did from nice masur birch from North Finland, ss-pinns and lanyard hole. The button to the lanyard i did from a nice piece mammut ivory. The blade I did from Sandvik steel. Whole knife and blade made by me. What do you think??

Hi and thank's fellas.
The sheath I think is gona be rawhide leather with some dark colour to give the handle a contrast.

I can't see a single thing which I dislike about it - there's almost always something which I don't like about a knife, but that one presses every button I think.

Cheers,

Very nice indeed. I hope it performs as well as it looks. I would be delighted to own such a thing of beauty.

Top job Kimmo, love it!
I can gather lovely woods for handles locally, but If only masur Birch (Betula verrucosa var. carelica) grew around here as its probably my favorite, for handles, especially when oiled up.

Man everytime I see that birch used for scales it makes me want one more and more!! Now I just need to figure out to make then properly!!

Bang up job!! Beautiful!
