Helle sixpack Neckknives

[philil]

Had this idea bouncing around in my head for a while!
Took about three months to build those 6   :D
Sure got better with my carving knive and rasp.

These are for my 5 best friends from School!
I'll hand them over tonight...hope parting with them won't be too hard   :rolleyes:


 
Olive handles with Pear, Wenge, Australian sheoak (mine), Black Locust, Cherry and Walnut (from left to right)

Very nice! Which Helle blade did you use?

[GMASIUK]

Those are awesome, excellent job. And did you say you used all hand tools to shape the handles?
Very nice shealth, did you design and make those also?

[swp]

Love em! Those sheaths are way cool also.

[owlbait]

How did you seal the hole drilled for the tang? Very nice work!! Distinctive, innovative sheaths.  Larry

Thanks Guys!  

The Blade is called Odel, I guess it's the smallest one with a blade length around 2".

Wouldn't have the sheaths expected to raise so much attention.
I came up with them cause I wanted to save on leather and  to have a sheath that allows one hand removal.
They are fairly easy to make, but those wooden knobs can be a bit dangerous for your thumb when using a Dremel   :rolleyes:  
Hope those pictures help






I sealed the holes with a Wooddust-epoxy mix.
