this is a WIP thread because they are more fun to me. this is one of my last german files that were gifted a couple years back. this one has a super aggressive tooth and is tapered. sooo, i will be grinding and buffing down the toothy file lines and using that taper for the handle area. this one is gonna be interesting, to say the least. dozer ![]() ![]() "She's got a cherry-handled pistol in her lollipop pocket."

So do you put para cord on the handle? ________________________ "The Revolver -A more elegant weapon from a more civilized age." | |||

Denim micarta? | |||

good suggestion. i was actually thinking about natural or black burlap micarta for this one. here it is today. got the blade rough ground this morning while i waited on some epoxy to dry. dozer ![]() "She's got a cherry-handled pistol in her lollipop pocket." Five Horse Johnson | |||

I can still envision one of these with a ying/yang style sheath. Making the sheath out of scale materials with sheath being smooth while blade handle has your textured style grip. I just haven't figured out how to hold sheath halves together unless both sheath and handle were slightly large to allow pins on edge of sheath. | |||

that sounds pretty interesting. i need to start branching out with different sheath designs. never say never. dozer "She's got a cherry-handled pistol in her lollipop pocket." Five Horse Johnson | |||

I think the natural or black burlap micarta would be awesome on this. Nice knife! | |||

thanks, i am making a couple of these for custom orders so i thought i might as well do a couple just to sell. i have always liked the the simple, clean lines of this model. dozer "She's got a cherry-handled pistol in her lollipop pocket." Five Horse Johnson | |||

A really dark blue or indigo grip panels would look good too, in my opinion. | |||

that is a good look, too. i haven't seen anything in that color for a while. might have to look into what is available. dozer "She's got a cherry-handled pistol in her lollipop pocket." Five Horse Johnson | |||
