…at least I have glued all the parts in the handle together now 😉

…to glue the parts together 🙂

just got to drill a hole in the last pice 🙂

…the next one 🙂 a 95 mm. long damascus blade forged and grinded by the Nylund brothers 🙂

it will have a handle in mammoth and ironwood, guess there will be some tin spacers to 😉

…for me to make a sheath for this one 🙂

…to the finishing of this knife 🙂 but still there’s work to do on it 😉

using “micro-mesh” when I’m sanding the handle, here’s the knife after 2400 grit 🙂 will go down to 12000 🙂

…to find some time for myself last week 😉 the house was full of grandchildren 🙂

but today it was very quiet at home, so I spend some time in my workshop 🙂

but there’s still a lot of fileing and sanding left to do 🙂

…to look for my files 🙂

first I was thinking of to useing a pice of califonia buck eye in the handle, but I change my mind and have black/gold box elder instead 🙂

I think it will work out quiet well with the blade 🙂

…in the workshop, working on that bolsterpice 🙂

and I make sure that the blade is sitting in the right position befor I’ll glue it 🙂

…to start building on the blade that I’m going to give a second chance 🙂

start with the bolster, stabilized and dyed elkhorn.

…from the bag 🙂

and on the following pictures the knife is even out of the sheath 🙂

a 85 mm. long blade i Damasteel, handle in stabilized and dyed elkhorn, tin spacers and stabilized and dyed masurbirch.
