lovely appearance and it looks like a really practical general purpose knife as well.

Really nice work.

Finally finished. Forced patina as requested. The purists are probably going to hate it!!

WOW mate, this is a stunner!!! Id love to watch you at work. Im dying to get into the tool making side of things.. Iv got some 01 and a few saw blades and files waiting but i lack some of the equipment. Ill have to stick to re-handling and sheath making for now. One day hey!

A pleasure to look at every time, thanks again.

Thanks for the comments.

As FGYT says, doesn't sound like you need much to be making knives. If you don't have a grinder, knock up a filing jig for the bevels.This one's fairly in-depth, but a simple version can be made with a few pieces of wood and some nails or screws,

Be warned though, it is very addictive!!
