Anyone watching rapidboy's work will have noticed he's been producing some stunning stuff over the last couple of years. Of particular note is his leatherwork, but he also does some outstanding things to otherwise plain looking knives. Read how he turns a plain old WS micarta handles woodlore, into this...

RB has been doing some stunning work thanks for sharing the tutorial.
The micarta woodlores are already going for £250 on ebay so who know how much if it looked like the one above ;)

A knife that looks like that, is a knife I would like in my collection. I wouldn't be able to eBay for it though! Guess I will have to return to the bench and make somethign similar!
Cheers and stay sharp

Very nice article. The Old Hickory knives are generally good ones but quality control is spotty. They need a lot of sharpening initially, but with frequent touch ups on a steel, work very well. They excell at slicing. The Nessmuk is a great design, but I actually prefer the scimitar, as you tagged it, as it gives a better point for boring a hole, or cutting a slot in wood. You can grab that point between your thumb and forefinger and do all sorts of fine work.
