Gets an A from me!

That's really good work. I'm usually not to fond of files made into knives, but this one worked well. Leaving just the filing on the edge was a brilliant solution.

All nice work! Looks like talent runs in the family!

It has been more than a year since I completed a knife. But, I am back in the grind. 8.5 inch hunter, 1075 carbon steel, polished hamon, green dyed and stabilized scales, brass bolsters and pins, brown sheath, black inserts, brown lacing.

welcome back Mr Morland! (you know what I mean) nice color to the knife...and very clever sheath!

I am glad to be back...

Glad to see you are up and running again Dennis. I have noticed you responding to posts, but no new knives were forthcoming.
Knife is looking good, as always.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Just finished. Same knife as one previously posted. Just finished differently. Dyed/stablelized maple scales, brass bolsters/pins, polished hamon.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Got one finished. Total length is 7.5 inches. 440c stainless, brass guard, pin, spacers, g10 spacer, natural sambar stag handle, bocote accents/butt cap. I call it “dink”.

Nicely done Dennis. I like it. Blade lines are very crisp.

Dennis, would I be infringing on your trade secrets, if I asked you to describe your process for attaching the the butt cap to the handle of this knife? That is a very nice knife, well done - an impressive combination of materials and workmanship!

Really neat little knife. All that's missing is the pheasant or trout.

Bada$$ stitching...

And for a fireman. Very cool.

2 internal hidden pins. 1/8 inch pins imbedded roughly 1/2 inch into the stag handle to 1/2 inch into the Butt cap.

Thank you!

A new one. Made from 1075. 7 inches long. Yellow g10 bolsters. Stag scales. Brass pins.

Another one. 7.5 inches long. 1095. Desert ironwood scales. This knife got started by my son. He wanted to learn how to make a knife. He designed it, cut it out, marked it, and quit. I finished it up after laying on the bench for a few years.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Almost finished. I need to sharpen it. I call this pattern “dink”. Just a handy little knife. Right at 7.5 inches long. 1075 carbon steel. Whitetail antler, blue g10 and copper handle.

 

[Dennis Morland]

I forgot to add the little surprise in the butt cap.

 

[Dennis Morland]

Another knife in the books. Kind of an oddball. Handle is stabilized cedar duel colored with sapwood. I have had this block for 10 years. It came off my late father’s sawmill. Finally used it up. 7.5 inches overall. 1075 carbon steel. Brass guard/pins. America themed sheath.

Well it has been a while since I posted a new knife. Here is my 2022 KITH knife/sheath made for OWL.

Roughly 9.5 inches long. 5 inch blade. 4.5 inch handle. I call this pattern Jackson. Made from 1095, hamon, brass bolsters/pins, desert ironwood scales. Wickett and Craig veg. tan leather, saddle tan/black.

Here is the link.

DeMo 2022 Kith

Another year, another KITH. I missed one (Bowie KITH). Not gonna happen this year. I am going to get started early. Not going to make this thread a how-to. There are thousands of ways to make a knife. None more right and none more wrong. Each maker has their way. So, this years theme...
