Description
This is my first attempt at a knife. Completely original design; I just drew it out on the steel without a template and went at it. The blade is complete full-tang and honed out of high-carbon steel. The handle is pain-stakingly sculpted from walnut and poplar burl.
After the initial forging, it took me about a week from start to finish of on and off work...using nothing but hand saws, sand paper and files/honing stones. The next one will be faster now that I have a band saw!

for your first knife it's a very neat design 'the Handel is interesting' my only critique would be that part around the "Bolster?" I would suggest exposing more of the blade.
Very original design, I like it
