Thanks Jim. That’s the eighth and largest knife I have made. Took adult Ed class for knife making in 2012 at our high school taught by a nationally known custom knife maker. I kept taking the class as I enjoyed it so much. Made one for my nephew for college graduation (photo) and have gifted two others. Sheath for this one is almost finished except for dye and polish - Cordovan this time. We start with a blank of 01 tool steel cut by the instructor. Blades are all hand wet sanded both before and after heat treating down to 600. Creates quite the edge.
