I’m to the point of applying the finish for my handle. As the title implies this is my first attempt at a hidden tang hunter. The guard fit up could be a little tighter, but practice makes perfect. I’m using tru oil for the finish so I’ll be starting on the next knife while I spend the next several days getting this handle finished and the knife sharpened. Thanks for looking, and I welcome constructive criticism!
A few more pics from different angles would help to provide any constructive commentary.
“So I'm lightin' out for the territory, ahead of the scared and the weak and the mean spirited, because Aunt Sally is fixin’ to adopt me and civilize me, and I can't stand it. I've been there before.”
Hey Joshua, hopefully this will show the guard fit up a little better. I’ve bought a filing jig, and I hope this next guard will fit up a little tighter.
