Whew, got busy with life stuff. Four more handles in the works now including my second commission.
Handles are fun!

Not my work but I still want to share it with you guys.
I recently returned to my home country, Vietnam, and contacted the local craftsmen.
I was pleasantly surprised by the community there. There are some interesting knife and handle makers.
Here are some handles. Nothing too fancy, but all wood is Vietnamese wood, except for the snakewood.
Of course, we have plenty of buffalo horns, as our whole agriculture is based on them

Ok this one turned out sick. The synthetic opal glows.
And off to a friend! It's on an Ikazuchi 210mm AS with a special etch from JKI.
Fantastic work! Really enjoying your pictures and comments. Handles look like a lot of fun to make.
The @Hardentknives knife is done! Love how it turned out. Red amboyna burl with buffalo horn & nickel silver spacers.
Do you know the names of 1, 4, 17, 26 and 30? Live the darker wood!
I believe 1 and 4 are red morrell and 17, 26, 30 are york gum/northern york gum!
Thank you!
Not yet!Wowthat's a lot of knoifs
Gave this one to a friend. Two tone amboyna burl & wood composite + nickel silver spacers. Put it on a cute lil white 2 petty but I forgot to take pics after it was installed.
