[sunndog]

I make a pattern almost like that - the combination of the smaller blade and the full sized handle make it just excellent for all kinds of tasks, not to mention easy to carry. Your fit and finish look excellent - great job. What is the 2 part lanyard tube though? I don't think I've ever seen that before.

thanks, its an extremely useful little tool! the full size handle gives plenty of control. the "2 part" lanyard tube i made myself, i had used some copper and brass loveless bolts and the only copper tube i could find was thin walled and didnt look right, i used a smaller piece of copper tube epoxied inside with pigmented (red) epoxy to give it more "meat"

It's a nice detail. Really nice knife.

Got to be worth £55. £65 with a matching subdued green kydex sheath.

yep... would just about cover the material costs lol

That is very nice looks like a proper user too. I like that its under 3mm stock instead of 4+ mm that you usually see. What kind of sheath will it have?

 

[welchyd1]

Stunning little knife. I have got to have one of your knives in my collection soon. One just like this would do nicely.

Yeah... Don't do that.

 

[Tiley]

That is a very fine looking knife. Has it found a home yet? If not, I'd certainly be interested...
