Three Piece Knife - Finished photo added

[opaul]

It's been a while since I've made a three piece knife. I'm using W2 for this one with hybrid elder wood scales. I've got the scales mounted but still have to shape and finish. Here are some photos of the WIP.

Sanded to 400 grit

Fresh out of the etching solution

Handles mounted and ready for finishing

OPaul, I like everything about this one. So much so that I may have to copy it ! ( with your permission !)

Absolutely I can send you a pattern if you would like me to.

Very nice! Somehow the hamon and the colored pattern in the scales compliment each other.

Thanks. I thought so as well when I was choosing a set to go on the blade.
