I introduce the first handmade knife of my life.(period of 6 months)
I cut with coping saw the parts, trimmed with a file, finished with inlay and engraving.
All work was very difficult, but there are many to learn, it was very interesting.

I will make another one!!

Looks really good for your first knife. The transition from your plunge lines to the spine of the knife is excellent.
My first knife was hideous. The artwork on this piece is top notch as well.

Well done. If you want more information on knife making I could give you some links. Very impressive job. Engraving makes it remarkable.

That's what I like about the forum, every once in a while true genius pops up. Great project and workmanship.
