First home made knife

[ade02uk]

Hi guys,

Just thought I would share a few pics of my almost finished knife. All the work has been done by hand with the only power tools being a drill and angle grinder.








Full tang blade made from 01 tool steel. Zebrano wood handle with 1mm black fibre liners.
I know my grind isn't perfect(still need to practice that) but overall when it's had a couple of coats of oil I think it looks quite nice

Cheers

Ade

Thanks for the positive comments guys. The one thing I'm missing is a sheath. Does anyone have any suggestions?
