Title: from this to this
Post by: windwalker_au on August 04, 2010, 01:37:26 AM

did a trade with a guy who did not like his big muela bowie knife 8&3/4 inch blade,i do not like muela pakka wood handles so i made a new one from black stained west Australian jarrah with copper spacer and black palm copper spacer then black stained jarrah again,  
cut the top part of the guard down came out quite good.
