Hey, I just finished up my third knife. Just over 9" OAL and a cutting edge of just over 4". Forged from 5160 (Aldo's) steel, full flat grind, black canvas Micarta handle scales with yellow liners and stainless steel pins. It is hard to tell from the pictures but the tang is tapered too. I need to work on making the taper more noticeable. There are a few things that I still find "off" with the proportions and shape but it feels good to get another one done and under the belt. Each one will get better than the previous. Questions, comments and critiques welcome!
My second knife was made at a class at NESM and is a large chopper, not sure if I should make a separate post for that. If there is interest I can post it here.
