Default Wadhams Knife

Maybe I'm crazy but I get sad when I finish a blade. You have this great relationship going and then it leaves you...Such is life. Tell me what you think about it.

The knife is 5160 steel. The bolster is made from pewter and the handle from some curly sugar maple I had cut down awhile back. It's treated with aqua fortis and I've since treated the handle with Tung oil and the curls jump out even better. Comments and/or criticism...

Wadhams,

Thats a really nice, practical looking knife. A real "user".
I like it a lot.

And, yes I know exactly what you mean about the "low" you get when a job like that is finally finished.

Still, there is always the next one to look forward to.........
