I just posted finished photos of my knife #8c in the WIP thread over on the Shop Talk sub-forum. For those who don't frequent Shop Talk, here are the photos and stats.
Length: 12-1/2"
Blade: 6" (tip to choil?)
Steel: 3/16" 1095 (from Kelly Cupples)
Clay-Treated w/ hamon, Flat-Ground w/ tapered-tang
Handle: Stabilized Giraffe Bone (from Giraffebone.com 2thumbs) w/ 416 Stainless steel pins, and shield from Tracy
Guard: 416ss & 1080 w/ 416ss pins & red spacer
For those who haven't seen them... knife #8a can be seen HERE and knife #8b can be seen HERE.
Now I have to figure out what project to work on next. huh1
