I received my bandsaw (Grace will be jealous :D) and i cut a full tang for a french forum challenge. The scrap under the handle gave me a piece of steel perfect for that small knife. (i don't change a mm of the cut to obtain the blade shape :D)

The handle is a piece of pear tree whose was on the land where i had made build my house. It was cut 4 years ago :D
The piece of pear tree had some fissure, but nothing that epoxy won't have solve. I cut the channel free hand :), that is not straight, but not a problem :D. The blade is simply epoxied in the handle :D

Blade in 90MCV8 , 2,6mm thick, 5,1 cm sharp, 15 cm long, 2 cm thick.
Differential hardening, awful leather sheath sew .
