This one I have been wanting to make for a while, I put file work on the spacer between the bolster and scales, its also pinned onto the blank with 1/8" pins just like the bolster. Handle is giraffe bone with file work around entire tang and spine of blade. Any way tell me what you think.

I really really like that blade contour! That looks great with the white bone. You have some of the best looking knives on this forum and I wish I was rich

What is the blade length? grin

about 4 5/8" from leading edge of bolster about 4 1/4 inches of cutting edge. And thanks for the kind words.

Super nice. The colors of the handle are amazing. And here I am without a damascus blade to go with that other one you made me...

Really like the knife Steven. The file work on the spacer is unique. Beautiful work as always. Merry Christmas!
