…what to do with that hole in the bolster, I filled it up with a pice of masur π
and here is the blade glued in place!
now I’ll take a few days of, going to UK to visit two of my grandchildren, almost as fun as building knives π

now I’ll take a few days of, going to UK to visit two of my grandchildren, almost as fun as building knives π
…with my next one π belive it or not, but it will have a handle in masur birch π
the bolster will be in reindeer antler that I’ve dyed π
and now I’ve file, sanded and polish the front of the bolster before I go on with fiting the blade into it π
…if it’s going to be a cold winter this year? I will not put this one into the soapstone stove!
and it’s not stabilized, so it’s time for me to grind my wittler π
…the first knife from my new workshop π and as you can se on the first picture I manage to take it out from the sheath with a little help from a leather strap π
the sheath is dyed, and the beltloop in its place and so is the belt buttonΒ toΒ π
now I will take the rest of theΒ week of, but I’ll guess it will be a lot of knives during the weekend, since I’m going to visit the Swedish knife championship in Ullared π
…the beltloop, here I’ve beenΒ “painting” its backside π
I have also made a button for the beltloop π
and tomorrow I will try to get the knife out of its brown sheath π
…to come to a decision about the colour of the sheath I start to make a beltloop for it π
and now the beltloop is finished and I still hasn’t come to a decision about the colour π¦
…so I could sew the leathersheath π
and now the knife has to rest a couple of days before it will come out of the sheath π
…I’ve given the handle, I decided to give the end of the handle a better grip to make it easyer to take out of the sheath π
I have also made some fileing on the mamoth tusk.
soon it’s just the finaly polishing of the knife left, oh yes…it got to have a sheath to π
