Title: Snowbound knives
Post by: Track on April 09, 2015, 05:23:00 PM
Been a long winter, but was able to get to working on some knives between shoveling out from the snow storms and a hog hunting trip to Florida. Here's a couple of knives I finished. Both are CPM154 steel with blackline spalted maple handles and 4" blades. Bottom knife has brass and stainless steel spacers.

I agree - all are really nice.
And I'm a big fan of your handle choices.
