Seeing pictures of Scagel knives was one of the things that inspired me to start making knives.

I just love the refined rustic beauty of them.

Great looking knives and those sheaths are a prefect match for them.
 
Those look great!

Whats your preferred treatment for your leather handles?

Thanks Eddie, First I epoxy(20 min stuff)all the washers as I stack them on the tang. Then I compress the handles over night. After the handles are ground and sanded to 320 I apply bees wax and warm the handle so it will absorb the wax about 3 X's. Then hand buff the leather, then I wax the entire handle with carnauba wax and hand buff again.

Thanks again
