I just finished this one. It is a Camp knife crossed with a bowie. It's pretty rare for me to build a full tang handle. The blade is 9 inches

Very nice. I like the full tang,if something happens to the wood, you still have a usable knife.

You got up early today!
Is that twisted "W"s?
I'll bet making a full tang knife was like wearing two left shoes all day.

Thanks fellers.

Karl,
You're smarter than you look.   :)   Yes, stacked 17 layers, turned 90 degrees and drawn, then 10 layers and twisted. I doubled the 15N20 in the original weld, but did not count the xtra 8 layers. It made the brights stand out a little more, I think. Thanks

Not sure how to take that.

I'll bet you thought of me when you did that, didn't ya'?

Gorgeous work as usual.  I can only aspire to that skill level.

Skill is not born into anyone.  It is earned thru hard work and perseverance.
