<p>Ron, one of them will be with palm tree scales, and the other is ordered just as blade. The customer wants me to prepare it (cut the sblade, rough grind the bevels, HT and finish the bevels), so he can make the handle.</p>
<p>Jan, it is no effort. It is my mistake to use Google Disk, so I had to upload the images to another platform. All my knives are first drawn with CorelDraw. When I like how it looks, I print the model and make a wooden prototype to try how it feels, is it too long or too…</p>

<p>Jan, it is no effort. It is my mistake to use Google Disk, so I had to upload the images to another platform. All my knives are first drawn with CorelDraw. When I like how it looks, I print the model and make a wooden prototype to try how it feels, is it too long or too short, is it comfortable or not, etc. And after that I start cutting steel. </p>
<p>Having all the patterns on my laptop helps when a customer comes and says: Your blade is 100*25mm, I want it 120*30mm. And I just open the file and pull it to the desired dimensions.</p> Kiril,

<p>Kiril,</p>
<p>Yes I can certainly see them now. I appreciate the effort to reload them so we could see! I know many stock removal makers use patterns, I can appreciate that it sure can save on the steel and make a more repeatable pattern. It always throws me for a moment, I think I have become used to works in progress being very primitive (Donnie forges)</p>

<p>Kiril,</p>
<p>The photos are visible to me, now. They weren't last night when I looked. </p>
<p>Thanks for showing this process. Will these also have black micarta handles? </p>
<p>Looking forward to seeing the finished knives!</p>

The guy looked at is a little suspicious and asked if I have another knife. I told him to take the knife, go hunting, shoot something he hunts and skin it. And after that, if he likes the knife, he will pay me. The next weekend he almost broke my phone calling me to tell how about how comfortable the knife is and now eazy it is to skin with it.</span></p> Kiril,
