Custom 9/8 Purple Heart Round Point
Here is a 9/8 custom I just finished up this evening using some Purple Heart for scales. Blade is O1. Tang overlay on this one with white tail deer horn. It certainly presented me with a few challenges fitting the overlays. When I finally had it where I wanted it, my original pivot pin felt awkward in the scales. So, I improvised and moved things up a bit. Pined the hole and placed a faux gemstone on each side. I thought about not saying anything about moving the pivot forward as though I "planned" on the gemstones, but I know you guys are smarter than that. :D
At any rate I think I made it work. Two days growth and it shaved like a Champ. Little different than my norm, and as always, opinions welcome. Unless, you just hate it, you can keep that to yourself heehee...
Best Regards
