Epoxied the handle to the Dagger today, now give it 24 hours to cure. It then need the finish sanding on the handle and sharpening. The file handle knife only needs sharpening. Both will be a great tribute to the owners Father.
Well this build took a turn. Originaly the file handle was going to be used as the knifes handle. The owner changed his mind and wanted a traditional handle. So here's what it's looking like so far. I have to say it will look better than the file handle.
Well changes have been made, work has been done. Both are on their way to the owner. I'll post up some pics of the finished project after the owner see's them.
Knives were delivered today. I was told the owner and his better half are very happy with them. They are going to be put into a shadow box or some other sort of display. I made SS plates with name and date of his father. I blocked out the name for privacy reasons. It was a pleasure taking on this build as a monument to his father.
