That is one amazing handle and knife. Indeed a grand entrance to the world of kitchen knives and KKF! :)
 
I was waiting for this and it sold before I woke up this morning.... I was equal parts upset & relieved. The redwood came out beautifully Dave! Great work
 
thank goodness i'm a wa- handle kind of guy - these Martell knives are killin' it in appearance.

That's why I asked Dave to make mine with a Stefan Keller Wa handle :D

Dave,

Out of curiosity why are the vast majority of your knives made with western handles?

#1 - I hate the idea of making hexagonal handles. I will likely drive myself mad with this process.

#2 - More makers do wa than western

#3 - Westerns are more challenging in an artistic and functional sense to get correct making it a long journey to get it right. I like this challenge.


I'm going to make wa handles though but I'm going to shy away from hexagonal versions. :)
