    Default Knives, File Handles,

    I have been making dome basic knives out of scrap tool steel and have a bunch of various hardwood end cuts to make handles.

    Neither of these two are fully finished, but the basic shape and design are present. They are O1 steel, and are razor sharp.
    My knives are WAY more advanced now. I have accumulated a lot of proper tools, and only use known knifemaking steels now. Yes, I welded a tang on the larger blade. It was a Christmas gift for my niece. She LOVED it.

    Those file handles look a lot better than the golf balls that are on the end of my files.
