Sometimes, in knife making, you make a knife and it seems everything that can go wrong, does. This is one such knife. I hate the damn thing, its caused me no end of grief and has become a real PITA.
Everything was fine until i put the scales on, when i took it out of the vice the scales had cracked... Grrrr. So i rehandled it, but put the wrong liners on, the chap wanted black and i put brass on (could have sworn he said brass.... my bad)..... and because i've used Brass, all the sanding of the handle has left the scales looking grubby around the tang...... Which i can't seem to shift.... its annoyed the hell out of me..
So i want £100(NOW SOLD) for it, just to get rid of the damn thing...... thats £50 less than it should be, just because the handle (to me) looks a little grubby. There is nothing wrong with it at all other than that.
Its 4mm 01, brass liners, rippled maple scales.
Someone please take it off my hands as i have a real urge to sacrifice it with a sledge hammer!!!!!
