…fileing to do on the tin spacers, but I’m pleased with how the mixing of the blue and yellow leather dye become 🙂

…this afternoon, and cowerd my fingers with “electricity” tape and started to sew my sheath 🙂

after a few hours hard work it look like this 🙂

the only thing that worry me now is…..can I get it out! I’ll find out in a few days 😉

…for that reason that I’m going to sew a leather sheath tomorrow 🙂

…and that’s the only reason 😉

…to why you should cover the blade with tape BEFORE you start the fileing 😉

                               on this knife I will have a short and straight form of the sheath, as you can see by the wooden liner. hopefully I will have a “leatherweekend” to be looking forward to later on this week 🙂

…I finish the finishing of the end of the handle 🙂

…in the but end 😉

                            the wood in the handle is cross cut, and the tang of the blade ends about 3 cm. from the end. so I will use a steel pin to strengthen the last part of the handle 🙂

                          in this “big hole” I will put a pice of mammoth 🙂

… and other files

this handle seams to bee a litle bit chameleonic,   it has become more green than blue after the fileing.

…

       … I have already start to file the handle with my rasp, this stabilized pice of birch was realy hard.

…a lot of rubber this morning

finaly I ended up with this, and I’m feeling fairly pleased with it 🙂

…now when I have glued all the pices of the handle together, I’m not sure if I like my first sketch 😦

so I have decided to take the weekend off, and see if my “headache” is better next week 🙂
