I haven't made a knife in a while but it started with a request for a Muk without scales. The future recipient wanted to add his own scales. So I made this:

Then I just continued to use up the piece of metal. Right now it's heat treated and in the tempering oven. In looking through potential handle materials, I found this whitetail leg bone. It seemed like an interesting concept so I decided to try it. Dug out a little piece of brass to close off the leg bone. I'll just be epoxying it tougher.

We'll see how it comes out!
Happy New Year. Wishing for a great 2022 for you all!
