nessmuk i have made with a few alterations.

[luckylee]

i have finally got round to handling the nessmuk, that fgyt sent me, thanks Duncan.
i have made a few alterations to this, i have redesigned the handle a little, i ground the ramp of the top, and i ground the choil area, to make it one continuous handle as i found this much better in my favorite grip, the chest lever.
i handles it in buffalo horn, thanks wood and knife supplies, and brass liners. there are some beautiful little white steaks in the horn, and what looks like scratches are reflections, as i took the handle up to 12,000 grit and is like glass.
i hope you like it.
