So, it is very nice to finally be back!
I thought I would share a new knife I recently made now that my elbows are on the mend.
There are a few more on my bench that are coming along nicely as well.

This one is a slim and rather small knife with mammoth ivory bolsters and reindeer bone handle with a Sandvik 12c27 steel blade.
Overall length is just under 10".

Thanks for having a look, any and all feedback is greatly appreciated.











Kind Regards
/Magnus

That thing is wickedly awesome! What is the technical name of the type of grind you have on that blade?

Thank you very much!
I have often heard this grind being called "compound grind".

Welcome back, Magnus Axelson! Super cool knife and sheath.

Magnus Axelson. Damn it's fun to say Magnus Axelson. I wish my name was as cool as Magnus Axelson.
 
It looks like a letter-opener for the King of Siam..
You are obviously an artist as well as a fine craftsman.

Thank you! Funny you should mention "letter-opener, this was initially intended to be just that! But it evolved!

Magnus, it is great to have you back, please make your visits more frequent. I think of you as one of the most innovative and talented makers in the world, both knives and SHEATHS!

Thank you so much for those very kind words Paul! It is the best praise I can hope to get! :)
 
Beautiful knife!

( I always told my wife if we had twin boys, they would be named Magnus and Axel. There is family precedence for both of these names... no way she could argue.)
