Here is some recent knife work from me.
5.25 inch blade, sandblast finish, CPM S-30V with fitted leather sheath. Full tapered tang, micarta handle.

These are snapshots, not Piter Class photos.

2nd image shows problems of high polish finish in image, same model knife.
Edited to add: knives are not sharp yet, that's next.

They DON'T photograph as well but I like a high polish for a using knife.

Yes! Using the leather stitcher is like going from a riding lawnmower to the left seat of a little bird. The learning curve has been steep.

The sun came out, got some slightly better images. The light better shows the handle shaping and detail of the tapered tang can be seen.
This takes some weight out of the end of the knife for nicer balance.

Bill - That is a good looking fighter! I think it is a nice addition to your long line of fine designs! See you Friday.

A Bill Harsey Knife!
 
Very Nice Work Bill, Also received my Yarborough Knife today also a fine piece of workmanship. No I did not graduate from Q course recently, in fact it was 46 years ago on Nov.22,1963. Thank's for everything you do for Special Forces and that includes more than designing and making the best knives in the world. Regard's, tom kelly
