I just finished this one. It's 8 7/8" OAL with a 5/32" D2 blade. The handle scales are from a block of spalted maple burl I found at Wood Craft. I cut the block into scales and stabilized them with Cactus Juice that I dyed green. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v416/squawsach/green%20burl/greenburl005_zps6e6e3ccd.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v416/squawsach/green%20burl/greenburl003_zpsc33abbfd.jpg)

Very nice. The scales are beautiful, the blade profile matches the handle contour perfectly, and I like the jimping on the spine. Nice sheath too.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Thanks guys. It was nice to get another one finished. I do make my own sheaths. I consider it part of the knifemaking process.
