I wanted to make a smaller bushcrafter as I don’t have very big hands and a lot of the archetypal knives I find too big for my hands and the thought of, if I want to baton or chop up logs I will use my axe and not a big knife, comes to mind :rolleyes:

£80 I have to pay for my makers membership :confused:

cheers

Nice knife. :D
Does it come with a sheath?

I have not made on for it. :rolleyes:
I am a bladesmith before I am a knife maker, and i am a knife maker before I am a sheath maker. I just like to finish the job with the steel but I will make a knife every so often.

I could make one :rolleyes:

How much for the blade and rubber bits is a question I would like to know the answer to as well - that looks a sweet blade - and I like making handles and sheaths but I am rubbish with steel!

The knife was justa one off. It was a prototype of a smaller bushcrafter to see how it felt and looked. I generaly dont sell fulltang blade blanks. I am a hobby maker and the knives and blades that I make are generaly made because I feel like making one at the time.

I will however be making some more :)
