Knife for my Bro

A Christmas present for my brother in Wisconsin. He doesn't know that I make knives...yet.

This Chef's knife is sporting a 7-1/2" blade made from 3-32" 154CM. It weighs in at 9 ounces and featuring 416 stainless front bolster, stabilized golden Amboyna burl and G10 rear bolster, I think this will be a welcome addition to his kitchen. ;-)







One more to do before the big day.

Dan

Your brother doesn't know you make knives? You guys must not have spoken to each other for years! I think he'll figure it out now ...

I started this dangerous obsession known as knifemaking a little over a year ago. He's not into the Internet, Facebook and all that, so we talk on the telephone and it's usually about more important matters than hobbies. C'est la vie.

I hope he likes it. I sent all the photos of it being made on a USB flash drive. Let's see if he calls on Christmas day and asks what to do with that! LOL

I hope that after only a year, I can become as proficient as you.
