Thanks for the help with my handles. It is very much appreciated. I am in the middle of a big learning curve...as of 8 weeks ago I had never made a knife, especially hand forged. I'm sure there are easier ways to get started but Here is my first knife. A 14.5 inch fighter. Hammered out of 1084, hand sanded to 600 grit and fitted with Cocobolo slabs. I have along way to go but it's a start.

Thanks to Burt Foster and Jason KNight for their guidance at the A.B.S. school.
