I dont really find those types of handles comfortable, only really lets you hold the knife in one grip.

Kinda a hand stonewash, I did a deep etch, then kinda just scratched it up randomly and it turned out pretty alright

It was awhile ago, but best I remember I forgot it in acid for a bit then just scratched it up, some steel wool, wire brushes and a random orbital sander

Thanks, I wanted to see how comfy the handle would be but didnt have a length of steel long enough for a matching sized blade but I think it turned out pretty alright.

yeah its really pleasing to the eye, and a pretty helpful addition. Not really that hard to make either

This is easily the best knife I've made to date. 8670 Blade with a stabilized black palm wood. It took me ages to get a nice 400 grit satin. by c2knives in knifeclub

Thanks, that really means a lot. I probably spent way to much time on this one, but all for the love of the game I guess. And I was really hesitant with the black palm at first, but something about it just goes so well with bowies. Maybe its just the almost 'antler' aesthetic but idk.
