Coworker's Knife

A coworker of mine is an avid collector of factory knives so I decided to make him his first hand-made knife.
He absolutely loved it, and wanted to know about every step in the process. I doubt he will ever purchase a factory knife again.

Two more CPM154 blanks on the bench right now....

Blade 3/16 O-1
58 RC
9.375" OAL

Linen micarta handle
stainless pins
