Hello all. It's been awhile since I've been around. Was a rather hectic summer, computer died etc.Not much knifemaking gone on here but I did get these done for a father and his son just in time for Christmas.
Steel is O1 and scales are camel bone as requested.
Thanks

Do you have a recommended way to sharpen the gut hook?

Those look real good. Your knives truly have a style of their own. Those scales are nice; the notches look good on those beefy blades. It's always a pleasure to see you show your work here. Clocking those mosaics like you did is a real touch of class...that quality stands out. Glad you're back up and runnin'.


Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Thanks for the comments everyone smile

rikker, I use a fine grit tapered diamond steel then wrap the steel with 1000gt. sandpaper,or finer. A dremel with a thin buffing pad and fine grit compound works good as a final finish.
