Young knife maker

DANA HOLMAN · August 08, 2009, 10:26:00 PM

Well guys, even though i'm only been doing this for about 10 months, i had a young neighbor very interested in knifes, so one day i asked him if he would like to make one, and here is his knife.
his name is Daniel Richeson

this is 01 steel about 6 inches oal, he made the sheath and the knife, with very little help.

Lin showed us the knifes of the two young men that he helped, so i thought i would pass it on, i hope you enjoy the pictures, because i know this young man sure did enjoy making it
thanks dana
