KNIFE MAKER
My son Joe just finished his first knife. He just turned 15 and loves working in the shop. He wanted to make a knife for a friend of ours who loves knives but has 8 girls and no custom knife budget. He did everything (design to finish) except inlaying my friend Mike's name and heat treating the blade.
After finishing it I think he would have kept it if it wasn't already personalized. He spent a few days just sanding....lol. I think it became like a child to him.
The blade is O1, handle is something I stabilized with red dye as a test. He liked the look and used it.
He's starting on the sheath tonight.
