@HumbleHomeCook hey thank you for mentioning me! But hey, it's not a competition. It's always nice to be able to see the work of others and I have great respect for anyone who creates with their own hand. Keep on handle-ing my friend!![]()
Thank you.

Well, with @tostadas, @cotedupy and @KasumiJLA posting such beautiful work lately, I'm hesitant to post my much less impressive work in progress. But, it's all about the trying and the learning.
Really happy with my shaping on this one. The best I've done so far. I did botch the tang slot a little as you'll see but it's okay.
Just a couple quick vids to hopefully inspire others. You don't need a shop full of power tools to give this a try.
This is me "De-handling Station". A.K.A. the kitchen oven.
Got the first full coat of Tru Oil on. I'll post when it is done. Or, if you don't see any more ont his handle, something went bad.![]()
Nice work on those angles. Lookin good man! What wood combo is that?
Really nice. Well done.And here it is all mounted up. My wife says it reminds her of an old map.
Teak burl and Walnut.

I know that last pic makes it look a little crooked but it isn't. It does have a very subtle twist but you really have to look to notice. And of course there's all the flaws I see but overall I'm happy with it.
Really nice. Well done.
I was asked about the pic I posted in the suji thread. This was a custom request to go with another member's suji by @MSicardCutlery. Simple design with stabilized two-tone shedua. It's a narrow mono handle with wider, flatter top and steep sides. Beveled front with rounded kono-style butt.

Well… We‘ve been in this game for quite a while…Seems I have to learn a lot more about knife handles!![]()
It has been a while since I have posted projects up on here, but then again, it has been while since I have had a chance to work on anything. The restaurant business is booming!
I upgrded my Gihei 210 hap40 with a new handle and saya. Both the handle and saya are constructed from some beautifully figured walnut. I added a contrast of color with a spacer of purpleheart and g10. The handle is a crest shape, which I have found particularly comfortable to use.

I bought on of those Morihei AS bunkas that Strata put up a few months ago. REALLY fun little knife. It came with an outstanding edge. I have yet to have to sharpen it yet. I can see it staying in my collection, so I gave it a facelift. Big surprise, I used walnut for the saya. I really like working with it. The handle is made from stabilized maple burl. I had a couple of pieces of dyed sycamore that I used for a accents in both the handle and saya.

I cant take credit for the handle. That is Tony LaSuer's fine work, but I did try to match the color scheme with some maple burl of my own

This mono koa handle was made for @Rideon66 for his giant okubo cleaver. Dimensions made to @Martyfish specs.
