    I made a mini cleaver.
    The handle is Elm burr.This is the first knife I have made,I bought some mosaic pins and plan to pin the handle on,more for looks than anything.

    Finally finished this up, was meant to be black with a rust blued blade but couldn't get a consistent finish on the rust blue so after 4 rounds of re hand sanding I settled with a clean satin finish.

    Full sized edc style blade with Black micarta, red g10 liners & 1095 high carbon steel. Grind is a thin, full flat grind (.005 behind the edge.) should be a sick cutter.

    Try sticking it in a pickle jar overnight, will come out with a nice even patina, don’t know what it does to the pickles but...

    That transcends knives and is more in the realm of art. Add in the 0.005" behind the edge... that is something quite special.

    Excellent knife! Thank you Viper. Was hoping to post some shots of the knife, in use. But sadly I aint shot any animals lately. For all you guys contemplating buying a quality knife, get hold of Duncan, the service is amazing, he keeps you informed along the whole build process, and the knife was everything I expected and more.

    Finished for a forum member, Mamba model hunter. Ringed Gidgee with toxic green and black liners.
    Carbon pins and a slicey full flat grind.
    Looking forward to seeing it in action.

    I'm the very fortunate recipient of Duncan's fine craftsmanship. I look forward to getting it 'dirty' sometime soon.
    Thank you very much indeed Duncan.
