Hi to all, I have just finished my first knife and am pleased with it.

It is a 5mm thick full tang with amboyna burr handle slabs with black liners fitted. I have made the knife from scratch using 01 carbon steel blank, from shaping knife through heat treating and fitting the handle and blade honing.

I am pleased with it and would appreciate any comments good or bad

That looks good my friend, real good! 5mm is one chunky blade! Should take a mean battoning.
Have you got a tube on the lanyard hole? Not sure if this would make much difference if not.

Thanks for the good comments, I have not put a lanyard tube in it but have seen nice mosaic tubes, maybe for the next one
