Title: A pair of Knives
Post by: DANA HOLMAN on October 04, 2011, 09:39:00 PM
It's been a while since I posted a knife, I made these two the same from tip to tail. steel is 5160, 6 1/4" blade and 11 1/8" OAL, Flase clip, handles are Walnut and Mesquit. There is nothing fancy about these knives, but its what the customer wanted. Let me know what you think

Those are nice Dana. You done great on a very difficult task. That's making two alike.

If any of you guys haven't tried it, you ought to.

Very nice job!  Even though these are 'simple', the craftsmanship says otherwise.
