Re: hickory scandi finished
What's to criticise?
Unusual handle shape looks good for draw cuts. Are you going to ake a sheath for it?
Please edit your post though to put all the images in [hide] brackets as we have dial-up membersI've learned from my mistakes, I'm now really good at them.

Re: hickory scandi finished
An excellent first scandi, the symetry's great and the fit to the bolster's good too
This has come up before, but I'm sure that that makes no difference to the page load, as the images are downloaded anyway. All that a hide tag does is save space on the page, and make for easier viewing where many images are involved.

Re: hickory scandi finished
It makes a difference to the speed of the rest of the thread if I don't want to look at the pics. Think of the second time someone opens it...the problem is bailing out if the pics open slowly. When I'm offshore I can have a very slow link and frequently find it frustrating. Originally Posted by ElThomsono

Re: hickory scandi finished
That's nice. I like the swell of the handle - it'll hold well in a sheath and looks pleasing to hold.

Good knife.
And your keyboard is clean enough! It is something to use not to look at (unlike many knives).ggfh666
