Thank you. I sent it to my buddy in Florida.

Very nice. Thank you for sharing.

When I saw this thread it reminded me of my late father slipjoint and my late grandfather slipjoint. Both reside on my desk. Both need a bit of work.

Awesome job!

Welcome to KD.

Been a short bit. 7 inches long, 1075 carbon steel, whitetail and g10 handle, blue star in the butt cap, braided brown sheath with Eagle Scout stamp.

97 to go. At the current rate, should be a week or two.

You are cranking them out...

98 to go. Looking better and better.

OPaul - If you are on Facebook there is a group called “Making slip joints and lockbacks”. Join it. Run like KnifeDogs. No BS just a bunch of good people with lots of helpful advise and cool pictures.

It is a success if it opens and closes. For a first attempt that is dang good. I think you did very well. As always, you learn a bit with each knife you complete. The next one will be better, so on and so on. In fact, I would like to pre-order no. 100….

I wish you the very best of luck. Hope it all turns out. For whatever reason, building this knife scares the crap out of me. I will attempt one, someday.

Welcome to KD.

That is a very hard decision. The front looks way different than the back. Maybe koa as you have stated. I was think some sort of dyed maple if it has been stabilized. Very difficult...

Merry Christmas Knife Dogs!! Enjoy the season. Be blessed.

Those are very nice stitches. Clean as can be…

Bob I do the same. Most are gifts or donated to a worthy cause. I have helped dozens make a knife. It’s a social activity for me.
