All that is left is to sharpen it and make a sheath. 14” overall with a 8 1/4” blade. I’m pretty sure it will Keel.

  Muddy, probably have 10-12 hours in that knife. It's a game of patience. You can really screw one up if your not carefull.
  Judge, I might sell a few.  Right now it is pretty  fun and rewarding. If I started taking orders it might become a job. lol
  Shady, There is only one Mike the knife. The man is truely a master of his craft.

All that knife is missing is that forged in finger guard, those are really neat.

Clue, I could have done it with the forged in finger guard and I made one that I just have to put the handle on but that is a knife where you make the handle first and then the blade. I didnt want to put all that work in one and mess it up. Im learning how to grind freehand and it is pretty easy to mess one up. Mike the knife says learn to grind freehand and it is way faster then having to adjust your jig. I have been grinding junk steel learning and it defintenly is a feel or touch you have to get the hang of.
