A knife I made.



Here's a knife I made recently. It's made of 1095, 1/8" full tang with walnut scales and mosaic pins that I also threw together.I heat treated the blade with an evenheat kiln I picked up late last year for the purpose of knife making. It has a 20 degree inclusive scandi grind and it cuts very well and maintains a good edge. I got a little distracted while making the plunge cut, however it's a fine user knife and works well as a draw knife too! Also pictured is the sheath I made for it.
