I wanted to make a knife for a 1911 grip maker who helped me get started making knives, and he asked if he could send me wood to use as handles. He sent me this 400 year old Birdseye Maple that he had stabilized and I slapped 'em on. I ground it on the grinder to 600 grit, buffed, then after I saw what flaws were left I hand sanded from 100 to 800 grit and buffed it again. It only took about 3 1/2 hours.
The Specs are:
3/16" O1 Tool Steel differentially heat treated by me.
Tapered tang, red handle liners, 1/4" mosaic pins, stainless tubing.
3 1/2" Blade, 8 1/2" OAL
Now remember, I've only been doing this for 7 months!
Hope you like it!
