I have been making knives for a couple weeks. I have been buying the blade. I don't do much to the steel but drill a few holes with carbide bits.

I am mainly just making the handles, pins, lanyard, epoxy, and finish.

I watch the knifemakers on youtube, and know I will never catch up to them.

I just want to spend a couple hours and make something.

I have been working on this for 2 hours [The 5 minute epoxy is setting up now in the clamp] and it will take another hour to sand it.
Black and White Ebony require no finish oil.

This is the blade

And an hour later it is done
