Very nice. I particularly like that first fixed blade you posted. Looks like a knife I would make. Love the graceful arched spine that continues across the handle. And I love the unfinished area. I also like the second folder, the one with the dark wood scales. I don't make folders but I think that is a particularly handsome knife.

Great work (and undoubtedly HARD work since you only used files).
Kudos for the commitment to the old ways!
How many hours each on average?

Have to agree with Andy.....that's a lot of hand work with files! (Been there - Done it) Nicely done.

Looks great. I hope to get to that quality soon. Especially the folders. Haven't attempted one yet but would love too.
