Ohh , I better get those fingerprints off the handle before I ship it.....never know what he might do with it.
 
Dwane that is a beauty love the Damascus pattern, the knife shape and the sheath.
 
Now thats different and very nice indeed! What is the blade width?
 
Sweet! Steroids come to mind. Did you use stand-offs or thread the tang.

I threaded the tang before HT.

Thanks

I used to tap everything too until I tried threaded stand-offs. Its a little more work but if your stand-off is say 1/2" and the tang is 1/4" you recess the hole in the back side of the handle so the 1/8" end of the stand-off fits in and then put your screw in its much stronger, twice as much threads and the scales on pins. Plus the stand-offs are way cheaper than taps. JMHO Plus if down the road a screw comes out the scale will stay tight because its on a pin. Again JMHO.....Roy
 
I like the thought of having twice as many threads. Taps are relatively cheap in 8/32 and I've never broken one.
Thanks Roy , I may just look for some 8/32 standoffs and give it a try.

Most excellent piece. How much does this wife stealing of which you speak cost and is there a "no return" guarantee?
