Hi all,
Here is my first custom folder worth showing. A big thank you to the knife making community for sharing information and a shout out to Bruce Bump for letting me come by now and then and ask questions.
It isn't perfect but it is getting close. Some of the things that I am proud of are a growing awareness of design, getting the bevels to line up with the lines of the knife, improving at having a consistent flow and finish level across the knife.
Things that need work: The pocket clip needs to be mounted in a little lower so that it can fit the flow of the knife better. I should have taken the edge thinner before I sharpened it. The tip of the blade is off to one side because the grind is a little off.
I would love some feedback on what you think.
Thanks,
