Derek & Thor,

Thanks for the kind words! I can't take any credit for the blade, it came from Jantz, I'm afraid. But I did the rest. The knife is a bit heavy unfortunately. I still need to make a sheath for this one. I have gotten into stock removal method of knife making in the past year or so. While I feel like more of an actual knife maker, instead of being a handle maker, I often miss assembling these types of knives because they go so much faster and I get to do more of what I enjoy and get to see the end results faster. I've been working on my first batch of my stock removal knives for over a year trying to get them ready to send off to heat treat! Patience is an acquired virtue I guess.

Tom I can 'see' a lot of time and effort has gone into getting all the finer areas of the fit & finish 'just right' on all these knives you posted back in July 14 - thanks to Thor L L for bumping them up to the top of the pile ... I missed them on the first go-round.
