This is my pathetic attempt to copy one of @bryan03’s awesome burnt oak handles. It’s also my first woodworking project since I was a kid. The grain doesn’t pop as much as in a Raquin handle, you could fit Arkansas into the tang slot, and there are probably 1 million other reasons why it’s worse, but I’m reasonably happy with it.
Here is everything I used to make it! The handle is in the middle.
(Edit: I forgot to include the small drill I used for the initial holes for the tang slot, and a couple small needle files. Oh well, I’m not taking that picture again.)
Thanks to @Carl Kotte and @Dendrobatez for their advice, and to some other chatty KKFers as well.
