Got this one finished last night.

Fairly run of the mill Woodike™ (Named for the 'Woodlore' knife) 220mm of 4mm 01, higher than usual Scandi grind with secondary bevel, 100mm cutting edge.

Handle is Ivory coloured Elforyn with white & blue liners. Elforyn's one of the easiest materials to work that I've ever come accross, although the sanding & finishing is a nightmare! (And it smells of sweet, burning milk) It seems to pick up every single grease spot, fingerprint & stain going   :mad:   I've finished it down to 00000 grade wire wool & it seems to have become stain-resistant now that it has a polish on it.

Wierd.

Anyway, it feels gorgeous in the hand, really warm & tactile, just like Ivory that it imitates so well (It even has the colour variations & striations like Ivory!) I used a couple of Mosaic pins from Brisa & also inset a small mosaic in the end of the firesteel handle.
The sheath, as usual, is 3mm veg tan.











Oh, I will be replacing the paracord with some blue  ;)

Real nice knife!,I think your right on to go with blue paracord also, even though the orange don't look bad.   :clapper:

For hunting to have a future, we must invest ourselves in future hunters.
