My Second Sgian Dubh Project

[GrainReaper]

I'm finally making progress on another sgian dubh, I have plans that I can't do this round but it's a learning curve anyhow so I will just attempt my grand vision on the NEXT one!

The blade is another file knife as I have a stockpile of them for just this purpose.

The handle material is up in the air, maybe some curly maple, maybe cherry, or possibly a hunk of the lightning struck timber from my near death as a child. But it's going to look fairly traditional,


So here is a pic of the blade so far...

It needs polishing, sharpening, file work, and to neck the handle down to fit in the bolster and handle...
