This is a very commonly asked question - how I make my handles, so I decided to take pictures to show it. It takes me about 6 hours to make a handle from start to finish.
I will post more pictures when I start shaping it.

PS: The tenon is oval in shape, not round.

Cool. The tenon seems like it would be tricky to match up...
For a high tolerance, yes.Originally Posted by tk59

I'd like to see of vid of how you do that stuff.
Anybody notice the bud buster in the back ground?
HIGH tolerance you say!
Huh? As for high tolerance, I think he means snug-fitting.
No, actually I don't see it. Can you be more explicit? Maybe crop the pic to emphasize your perception?

Sorry, I forgot Americans are uptight about cannabis.
Also sorry for getting off topic!
I still don't see it.
And I have no problem with the killer weed from hell, as the DEA refers to it!
Anyway, it looks more like coke to me.

I'd be interested in some details on how you fabricate the rectangular mortise for the tang.
