That looks good. I'm also curious to see how that blade holds us at that hardness. Let us know.

That's a beauty! Excellent fit and finish! Can't wait to see the finished product!

I'm really looking forward to your results. This is a very timely thread, as my next project will be a set of kitchen knives. Thanks for taking the time to do this!

Very nice! Looks like a very comfortable blade to work with. The snow is unreal, even here in Atlanta...

:) Great, my comment was completely in line with what you were planning in any case. I don't use a wood rasp much (I use a file, or the grinder/Dremel), which allows me to glue in the pins at the same time that I put on the scales. Same result in the end, so I guess it doesn't really matter.

Looking good! If I may make a suggestion. Glue (epoxy) your pins in, and shape them with with rest of the handle. In my experience with working with wood and inlays, etc, it produces a smoother transition.

Excellently executed! Beautiful knife and sheath!

That is very nicely done! Very interesting blade design.

Very nicely done!

As mentioned previously, there is a service available now called "Square". It has a little device that you can plug into your iPhone/iPad to read credit cards with, or you can type in the card details and process the transaction. I applied for mine a short while ago, so I haven't used it...

Great tutorial! Thanks for taking the time to post this.

So in the end you grind off the head of the screw, and all you see are the bolts and the thread, right?

+1. Great guy to deal with, and excellent products!

I rough out the profile first (the blue lines), and then round the edges until it feels comfortable in my hand. I'm sure one of the more experience makers will chime in here soon.

Very interesting design, and excellently executed. I really like the CF handle on that blade design.

That is very interesting. Can't wait to see the finished product...

Great looking knife! Excellent work, and I really like that wood!

I put a CA (cyanoacralyte - sp?) finish on it. 5 layers of medium flow CA sanded down to 2000 grit in between, and then tung oil to finish it off. Great find on the birsdeye and the Brazilian walnut. It is hard as nails, but finishes off very nicely.

Thanks Murph!

Most people on here etch their logo's on. You can build an etching machine pretty cheaply (there are a few WIP's on it, as well as instructions), and an excellent stencil will make the process very easy (I got mine from Ernie Grospitch, a member on here).
