General Purpose, bushy knife.

[Woodcutter]

Thought I would post some pics of this knife made from scratch.
I made it for the Knivesuk show for the "from scratch" category but it was
quite rightly overshadowed by Grace Hornes beautiful folder.
I did win another category "from blade blank" see link for pics of that one

Anyway, specs on this one are, 4mm thick 01 carbon steel,
blade 118mm, handle 130mm, 248mm overall, scales are thuya burl,
homemade mosaic aluminium and brass pins, aluminium lanyard hole.
Handle is a little longer by design as I have broad hands, see pics.

Hi Woodcutter

a work of art !.

One question, how did you get the bird logo on the blade ?

Cheers,

Frank

Absolutley stunning mate, good to see a knife with a larger handle. I have rather broad hands too and find the handles on most knives too small. Keep up the good work

Its etched, using a method I found on british blades, scatch the design in nail varnish, them dab the design with salt water soaked cotton bud attached to P9 battery.

Woodstock, sorry I only just noticed that you asked how much a knife like this one goes for. This one went for £170,
with sheath. I have another one of these on the go, same shape and dimensions if you are interested? I am happy to modify
it I can adjust the shape/size how ever you like, and obviously handle it with scales of your choice, supply with or without
sheath, negociate on price etc. PM if you are interested.
