Some progress

[DTrow]

As the title states I’m new to knife making. I have bought a grinder that I haven’t had time to set up yet. I hope to get by a friends shop and shape a few blades soon. Here is my second knife finished. Not the best but better than the first.

 

[Sean Jones]

Looks good! Far better than my second knife. Keep up the good work!

 

[Doug Lester]

I agree with Sean. That shows that you've got talent.

Contour on the handles is spot on ! Well done !

 

[MTBob]

You are talented, keep up the good work. Tell us about the steel and handle materials.

 

[Johan Nel]

I concur with rhe other gents here. You did excellent work.

Thanks for all the kind words. I had a good instructor.

Steel 80CRV2. Linen micarta (I think) with red and white liners with loveless bolts. Blade is 3 1/2” with OAL
7 3/4”. I buffed the scales to a good shine. Can’t wait to make another. I got lots of ideas.
