Buckeye Burl & Damascus

[Burton]

Hi all here is one that I completed recently. I have yet to get the sheath done. This is my damascus that is a mix of crushed W's and random pattern welded and a ladder pattern pressed in and flattened back out. The handle is a stabilized Buckeye Burl with a stabilized Black Ash Burl and black G10 spacer. The guard is stainless as well is the through nut showing on the back. This is the 5th knife I have made with a threaded tang and a stainless nut holding it together. I am addicted to this type of construction now. Let me know what you think. Thanks to all for looking and have a great day.

Best Regards,
Burton Harruff

Thats a great looking knife! That type of construction lets you get pretty creative with the handle shape.

That is a excellent knife with a great looking handle.
You have done Great! One suggestion is on the next one you try going with a S pattern Guard, Or reverse S in this case.

That would increase the Sex appeal and also probably feel better in the hand while protecting the index finger and making a bit of a thumb ramp that could be used for some jobs.

I am impressed!
