1 finally finished and others started.

This first one I actually started a couple months ago and I've finally finished it.





Steel - Old file
Cutting edge - 2.50"
Handle - 3.5"
Skins - denim/t-shirt micarta
Sheath - stained dark Brown and distressed with 000 wool

This next one was going to be for the grind kith, but, I messed it up and had to go to a full grind.



Steel - .177 1084
Cutting edge - 3.25
Handle - 4"

Then this one is a set that I am working on, they will go in one sheath.

The micarta is homemade. Polyester resin, and old pair of jeans and a green t-shirt. Not sure I really like the color though.

Yes, the files were annealed and then heat treated after the grind.
