My first stock removal blade

I cut out and profiled this knife from 1/8" 1095 stock. I ground the blade myself and sent it to David Farmer who heat treated the blade for me. The scales are walnut with brass pins.

Davis and I are currently working on a collaboration project with a slightly modified version of this blade. All blades will be done by David and will feature his wicked sharp convex edge. I will be doing the handles and sheathes.

Bruce,
I'm loving that nessie. Sent you an email about this, and some sheath work I'd like to ask you about. BTW, like the site. Very nice pics, as usual.
