    Slim Damascus Steel Knife

    Just finished this little guy (again); I've had several handles on it and nothing just jumped out at me. So today I made this micarta pattern, it's slim and I'm happy with the results, the handle is slim but fits great in my hand, and I have big hands. The blade is 3 1/8 inches over all the knive is 7 5/16, the blade is 7/8 at the widest part. I used four 1/8 in brass pins and one ΒΌ mosaic pin. I make and do everything myself, mosaic pins, micarta, and sheaths, no one else by me touches my knives. The sheath is veg tan leather antiqued finish and topped off with neatsfoot oil, double stitched and welted.
    Good to be making knives for myself again; I've been super busy getting out some custom orders. I hope to finish at least five knives before Saturday, I have two finished but I still need to make sheaths for; I like to have five or six knives done before I spend half a day making sheaths.

                It was for sale; then I decided I was going to keep it. I have no clue how many knives I've made in the last 15 years and this time I decided it was mine.

                  You do brother; I've seen your work. Making knives is just like anything else, gets better with time. And thanks for the nice words.

                        Thanks bro; and thanks for the files, I can sure use that big one since I lost one just like it somewhere in my shop.
