Bullshark

[dazcon]

Hi Folks! Me again with another almost finished project.

This one will maybe be a little on the tactical side for some tastes.

First up I'd like to say a MASSIVE thankyou to Toni at Eastvillage Knives for granting me permission to make myself a Bullshark knife. An absolute gentleman and excellent craftsman!!
Still a little shaping and polishing to go. Feels excellent in the hand.Balances up nice too.
5mm 01 blade and hardened pommel. Glued and peened. Jade G10.Black liners. Stainless and brass pins. Definitely the most challenging knife I've made. There are a few differences to an original as I wanted to put some of my own little touches in.




Sharpened on my new contraption!
Thanks for looking. Comments welcome.

Looks like a great knife. Just saw a documentary on the bull shark, suggested it was more dangerous than the great white shark as it is very aggressive and will swim in very shallow water as well as fresh water...

Thanks guys!

I know this knife is way too tactical looking for the purists but it is a profile I have admired for some time. I will be kept for my own little collection.

Love the (ocean coloured) jade G10 on a knife called the bullshark

Must be the most evocative name/handle combo ever lol

It is an unusual shade of G10. You don't see it very often. It's usually ghost jade which I do like too.
