Haven’t done a frame handle in some time. This is a 6 5/8” funayuki with Sambar stag handle with silicon bronze frame and domed pins. Steel is Damascus sumingashi with white steel core, quenched in water

Nice, very rustic yet refined with the bronze. kindof reminds me of Yoshimitsu meets Saji
 
Not bad for a hobbyist

thanks very much, I actually just sort of went full-time a month ago....at least trying it out :)
I was a part time hobbyist for 2 1/2 yrs, been absent for the last 6 months
I've sold about 50-60 knives, mostly outdoor fixed blades, friction folders and a few slip joints.
I'm really just regaining my skills to be sharp again.

Congrats and best luck, keep in mind
Show your handiwork is for hobbyists to show their work , not for the full time makers
 
here's another stag frame handle completed
I need another hour or so of sanding and buffing but I wanted to get some pics before it got dark
pics aren't sharp, I guess there wasn't enough light

6 5/8" Damascus suminagashi white steel quenched in water
frame handle of silicon bronze, kingwood and sambar stag
sorry I can't show the front side since I don't have the supporting membership yet, still trying to see if it's right for me

the last pic shows the blade with an etched edge transitioning to a polish as it approaches the spine.
going for a faux hamon look

thanks for looking
