All About Pocket Knives

I've made a couple fixed blades from files etc but never had messed with pocket knives much but after looking through the forum at all of the great guides and tutorials I thought why not give it a try. I had this no line Camillus with shrunken scales.
I got some smooth bone blanks tested some jigging ideas.
After jigging I dyed them tan using leather dye. Didn't have enough to soak them so I dumped in some black.
Cleaned up the blades a little and pinned it all together and polished it up some.
I'm happy with the way it turned out. Opinions please.

Great job!

Nice job!

Good work on dying your own scales!

Awesome job

Looks pretty good from here!

The color and the jigging turned out good.

Looks real good to me. Great job!

Most excellent!

Wow, that looks like a terrific first effort! Now you are hooked for sure.

That looks great! I really like the look of that bone, the way that the dye only penetrated so far, and left the hafting lighter in color. The color and jigging looks similar to some old Western handles that I have, only yours looks better!

Nice hafting too.
