Here’s my first handle - coming along! About half way there right now. Going on my 210 denka
Amboyna is so beautiful. I only have one amboyna handle and it's easily the prettiest in my collection (though I don't invest heavily in handles).
Your handle has an excellent 2-d shape, though it's very contoured on the Z-axis. I'm sure you've shaped it to fit your grip, but I'm not a big fan of buying highly contoured grips -- unless they're made to fit my own hand. Since it's your work on your own knife, I'm very impressed.
That's going to be a sexy Denka, no doubt about it.
Very nice. I saw that over on IG. Do your burl eyes have chantoyance? That’s one of the things I really like about amboyna.
I bet that will look beautiful. Are you going to cut in half and do rivets or file down the tang?
I’m just going to epoxy the handle in. The denka doesn’t come with spaces for rivets and it’s pretty light. I’ve already cut the hole for the tang
Great looking good
how did you make the tang hole?
Ah, I am so used to seeing western handled Denkas, I wasn't thinking that you had a wa handled version! Does yours have a finger choil?
You can see the hole on the top where the drill went through.
