Here are 2 I just finished up, they will both be going with me to the OKCA show in April.
The first one has osage handles, stainless pins and an antiqued blade. The handles are actually a bright yellow, but was hard to capture.
The second one has super curly Bastogne walnut handles, and stainless pins again, with some modest scallop file work.
I took both handle 1000 grit for super smooth finish.
Both are about 5 1/2" long with 2 1/2" blades of L6.
The last pic better shows the real color.

Great looking knives Ben.
Those look very, very handy!
Thanks guys!
Those are some sweet little tools there. You should have a very nice display at the upcoming show. Looking forward to getting some more blades made.
Very Nice looking knives!
Awesome looking knives. They seem like they'd be very handy, too.
