So I had seen some of David's designs and thought to myself, "I really like his blade designs I just wish he did a more traditional handle." Then I thought to myself, "I could do that." This is the result. Don't get me wrong, I understand that David is trying to create a performance blade. I was just trying something a little different. Hopefully you all like the result. In this case the handle and scabbard are all one piece of black walnut, all sanded down to 400 grit with two coats of tung oil applied. Unfortunately, these are just teaser pictures, I don't want to show off David's awesome blade because truth be told I had not oiled it up and got the fingerprints off when I took these pictures. More to come tomorrow...
My next project? Well, I'm thinking I might see if I can get David to take some thicker stock and make a traditional blade and then see what I can do with that...
