heres my first attempt to make a knife also made the sheath with steves supervision thanks steve for the help bro. bought a knife blank and me and steve (voodoofire1) hartley set around in my living room and come up with this . whats everybody think of it it fits in your left hand like a glove . but in your right hand feels awkward . I like it cause I am a lefty . :bigsmyl:

looks good, differnt. loyd
I like it. Ya done great.<><
great looking blade.
Very nice. Looks like it needs to taste a little blood.
I can't see any pictures at work but am looking forward to checking it out at home. I have found an interesting thing about the antler handled knives I make. I will make one for me (Lefty) and it feels great. When someone else (Non-lefty) picks it up they remark on how great it feels in their hand. I have decided it is just something about antler handles that makes them feel like they were built for either hand. although I just finished a small knife with a small brow tine forming the integral guard that, at least to me, doesn't feel right in the right hand.
Heckuva first attempt! Keep at it.
That knife sure turned out good, but it looks much better in person than in the pics, great job Jeff, nice to work with someone so talented, glad I could be of help.................Steve
I like how the curve of the blade flows into the curve of the handle. Nice.
I notice the black on the end of the knife handle. Does that mean this is a curved full tang secured at the rear of the handle or is it a short tang glued and the black is a wrap? Either way it's pretty nice.
Nice looking knife man.
Very nice. :thumbsup:
Left Handed? :banghead: Rules me out of talking you out of it.. SWEEEEEEEEET JOB Jeff.
Nice!!
Don't use up all that bison though, :saywhat:
I still need to talk Steve outta some for a Helle, to match the armguard he made me.
I wonder if a left or right shed is what matters?
It has to match your fletchings. ;)
Great job!! first knife? could have fooled me!
jake

the black part is just paint i put it on there just to give it a little diffrent twist .this knife is epoxyed in the antler not got a nut on it on the end . thanks to everyone for the great comments i ordered 2 blades to make for the knife swap . Jeff
Hey jeff, I bought that same knife blank the other day. Probably from the same guy. LOL
I'm planning on using it for the knife swap myself.
there pretty nice i wasnt disapointed in it at all . were you satisfied with yours .
IIIIIiiiiii Like it!
Love the blade shape...I am a LH person too.
No I wasn't disapointed either. They are pretty
nice knife blanks. I've been looking at the damascus blades too.
