Sharp beak knife

Here is my latest file knife. Just under 9" in lenth with bone scales and stainless bolts and nickel silver tube. I tried to do some jigging and dyed the scales, but didn't prepare the bone ahead of time so the dye didn't penetrate too deep. Blade is flat ground and finished with a convex edge.

Thanks for the comments. I love making knives and as I have never been to a maker's shop, this forum and a couple of others have been my way of learning. I've got some more bone soaking in oil right now, so hopefully next go round the dye will penetrate a little deeper.
