KNIFE MAKER
I finished up my 200th knife today. When I made my 100th, I decided every 100th knife, I would make something I hadn't made yet.
This one is my first feather pattern. I decided to make it with crushed w's, that I hadn't made before either. I need to improve my splitting method so I can get the spine of the feather to stay centered better.
I used a piece of feather crotch walnut for the handle and curly maple and red G-10 for the spacers. Not the best picture, so I'll get more taken tomorrow and add them here.
