I like it!
Some denim micarta scales or green G-10 scales and it will be a perfect user

[Jim Bowie]

Thanks ! Im trying to design something to make a "batch" of.

Very nicely done.

 

[Zaydok Allen]

Very cool man. I like the angle on this one better and it will still mostly keep your knuckles up and out of the way.

 

[Jim Bowie]

Thanks 460Shooter ! It feels good in the hand and I think its gonna cut ! I cant wait for my Nitro-V to arrive so I can start to make some of these ! My grinder is all tuned up and ready to go !

[Jim Bowie]

Thank you redneck!

 

[rust collector]

Clean lines and great grind. This isn't your first rodeo, is it? Nice work!

 

[Jim Bowie]

No, rust collector, not my first ! My dad helped me make my first knife when I was about nine. Ive been making knives for about 12 years. Ever so often I get the idea that I should take it more seriously.

 

[Jim Bowie]

My steel could be here as soon as tomorrow! Thank you Aldo Bruno!

Hi Jim,

‘Nice grinding technique on your knife. I like 15n20, it is very tough steel with good edge retention easy to heat treat and makes for great kitchen knives. I usually quench a 15n20 blade at least two times in 130 deg. canola oil and temper it at 375-400 degrees.
