Jason , "but not awkward " I thought it was a little awkward looking , But when it was finished It wasn't that bad .
Dan I come up with this doing vine file word they never really had a start and a finish , I call this a sprout at the start it has a root ball and I used a three corner file with one side ground smooth so I could control the cut , And it has a hook on the top that is the sprout . Some file work just looks like a bit much , and I think some times a little is more . This knife I don't think I have the handle rounded enough , a little to square for me ..
And thanks for the comments Good or bad , that is how you learn .
