Here's my latest effort. Buffalo Horn and Zebrano. It's going to be a present for my Brother in law. The three Xs I've (crudely) etched in the blade are a reference to a tatoo he has. My wife has even made up a nice little box for it.

Very nice knife there. I like the shape of the handle with a bit of a curve to it. Should be a happy man soon!

Thanks for your kind words. The blade is a Kankaanpää 95
a very smart knife there - if only we all had such caring and generous brothers who made us nice knives!! (nudge-nudge). How much are you selling them for?

Lovely job I like the shape and the choice of materials the Zebrano is really nice,
The buffalo horn can can be polished with T cut or liquid metal/perspex polish (all similiar) to bring it up really shiny. This is not a criticism just a tip.

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to give that a go.

Just be careful as it can leave white residue in little gaps. Apply sparingly to a cloth.
