This has been complete for a while, but I've been honing it up in stages because some mistakes I made on the bevel meant a section of the heel end was not quite as it should have been. Every time I got fed up with it I put it down for a while.

Anyway, it's finished now and I'm pleased to say it's extremely sharp!

Specs are:
O1 tool steel, 3mm thick at the spine
Orange G10 scales
5mm Brass washers
Overall length approx 180mm
Blade length approx 90mm
Handle length approx 90mm

And here are some pictures, hope you like it. Really worth while doing one of these if you have a bit of time. It does take time, but it's not really difficult, especially if you send it out to be heat treated like I did. Also I didn't use any power tools to shape the metal, so if you have an angle grinder that would considerably cut down the time required.







Cheers,
Greg
