Nice work.

Good job bro. I had a customer bring me two cleavers and four butcher knives all from the mid 1940's. Three of the butcher knives are 3/4 tangs, a booger to mortise out the handles. They were his wife's grandmothers knives, she was a butcher. I'm using rosewood for the handles. They are going to build a shadow box for them and display them in his kitchen wall.

Great job Shane!!!
