Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades Some of my work

Haven't had much time in the forge lately, but here's another carving set I just finished. Headed to my uncle back in PA. Hoping to surprise him with it before Thanksgiving. Mesquite scales, I tried a couple things different and drifted the tang for a pad under your finger right at the top of the handle. Turned out pretty cool,but was a royal pain in the ass to get the scales fitted up. That's what I'm trying to show in the second pic. I also sharpened the inside of the fork. Not cut your finger sharp, but down to a false edge. Knife balances at the first finger, fork a little further back at the first pin.
