… when it’s time to sew a sheath (or two), I start building a new knife instead 😉

this time a skinner 🙂

a blade in vanadis 10, and a handle in stabilized califonia buck eye 🙂

… for the blades 😉

and here they are, just waiting to get prepared before the leatherwork 🙂

… for this two, before they will get dressed 🙂

🙂

… from the Knife-Expo in Norrkoping, where also the Swedish Championship was held 🙂

so I’m very pleased whit the weekend 🙂

… to form the handle on the blue one 🙂

first the bolster.

and then the rest of the handle 🙂

…on this one 🙂

not polished yet, only sanded to 800 grit.  so it’s time to start with the blue one 🙂

… with the knife with a blade in aeb-l steel, grinded by Dan Andersson. and with a handle in

stabilized moose antler, a birch burl and pewter spacers 🙂

and this is how far I get today, sanded down to 320 grit 🙂

during the coming weeks 🙂

one with a damask blade and one with a blade in aeb-l steel. both will have stabilized birch burl in their handles 🙂

… last night from ”Knifeweek in Ludvika” together with this knife and a diploma 🙂

… finished 🙂

this one with a Elmax blade, and handle in moose antler, ebony, crosscut spalted birch and pewter spacers.

and the one with a blade forged by Simon and Jakob Nylund, with a handle in iron wood and brass spacers 🙂
