Some pretty and practical Micarta handles with double liners for an interesting build currently underway.
Just finished hunting knife with damascus blade, walnut scales, green micarta liners and brass pins.
Just needs some oil and a leather sheath and it's ready for some action.
Thanks to @gonetropo for helping out with the wood for the scales and @viper for inspiration and showing some different colors in a hunting knife:)

Looks awesome mate, great effort. Geez and you give me shit for using those blue liners:D
All I can say is be careful...it can get a bit addictive.
Thanks mate, those blue liners look better every day;)
Think I am addicted already..
Another tale of a modified knife. It started out as a Spyderco Junction. The blade was exactly what I wanted, but it needed a new handle - in blue G10 so I don't lose it!

Something different , a Kephart design knife.
Horace Kephart was a trained librarian and writer from the turn of last century in America.
When he went on his extended trips into the wilderness he carried three things. A short Tomahawk, a fixed blade and a small 3 inch folding knife.
Around 1900 to 1904 it looks like his design went commercial ( see Advert ) , I have know idea how successful these were.
The design is still copied today by the likes of Bark River and many other.
I got asked to build this so here is "my " version of a Kephart.
Full grind, double liners, 14c28n , brass pins and lanyard , 5 inch blade. Attachment 132031Attachment 132032Attachment 132033
I like your new version of the Kephart knife, very cool design!
@viper, that is a nice looking knife, any you willing to sell at the price advertised in the original advert?
