Nick Wheeler made a small paring knife the other day, which was the inspiration for this pattern. It's about 5 3/4" oal, .080" stock. The steel is belt finished 52100, curly maple scales with brass pins and an oil and varnish finish. Heat treat by Darrin Sanders to 62 rockwell.
I can't wait to make another of these. It is about the perfect size for front pocket carry, or low profile belt carry. I need a sheath made now, but I'm not sure how I want to carry it.
I think the next one I'm going to do in a stainless of some sort with elephant or mammoth ivory.
Anyway, here are some pictures. As always, comments and suggestions are welcome. These are the first pictures I've ever tried with a light box. It is just a hacked together thing, but I'm going to make a much better one for the next time I take pictures.
