A knife of different sorts

[Horn chaser]

I have some leftover exotic wood from the longbows I have been building. I came across an idea I decided to do. I am in the process of building a wooden cake knife out of Macassar Ebony with Gaboon Ebony handle. I figured this would make a nice surprise gift for my Aunt who enjoys making cakes as a retirement hobby/business. I have the knife rough shaped right now and will finish shaping when I get more time but thought I would go ahead and post it on here now and show the finish pics later when I get around to finishing it up. I thought this might give someone on here ideas for themselves.

To be honest I haven't a clue. I used and old knife we had as the pattern. When I decided to build this one I didn't have any particular design I was planning on using.

Cool idea can't wait to see the finished knife.

Finished the cake knife up today and just got through seasoning the wood with Howard butcher block conditioner. Came out pretty neat.
