What's up everyone?
I have a freshly made little cutter to show.
It is 20.5 cm long overall, with a 9.5 cm long , 3.2 cm wide and 3 mm thick blade. That is 8 inch in total with a 3.75 inch blade
The handle is made of deer antler and oak and the blade is forged of 5160 and L6 steels with around 200 layers.

Re: oak and damascus
Another beautiful knife with perfect proportions, which is why it is attractive.
I think this handle is more suited to a large hand rather than to an elf like me ?

Re: oak and damascus
what about the girth ? the distance around the handle at largest spot, this is what i was thinking looks best for a big hand.hellize wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 10:21 pmGlad you like it!kootenay joe wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 10:14 pm Another beautiful knife with perfect proportions, which is why it is attractive.
