First stock removal knife finished & some other knives to follow

[Paddytray]

I've been working on a batch of knives slowly over the last 2 years .
Some forged some stock removal .
I finished up the first one today .
It's O1 , 5mm , Irish walnut handle , brass fittings , with a forced patina , filed by jig sharpened by stone & diamond stones and then
cleaned up to 2000 grit by jig
I will post more pictures as I go but how am I doing ?

Ok so i'm back sorry its been a while but I have been keeping busy .
And one thing or another has kept me ofline for some time .
Here is a set of three that I made for a friend recently .

And here is another that is almost finished and needs a home . .
.
This one is my first attempt at texturing a handle . It's getting there
.
This one was for another friend
.
this one was sheathed and tattooed by my friend tat2trev it's for the walnut one from the start of this post.
.

So as you can see I have been busy tinkering

Nice stuff mate - are you selling the green handled one then?

Did you post something once (an axe?) where you'd etched a skull on it?

If so have you ever done a "how to", or do you know where I could find one?

Advice appreciated.
