Hello guys,
I have grown accustomed to ask you for an advice, so here I go.
I am thinking of making Western handles with a metal bolster in aged bronze or stainless steel (possibly mokume later on), main wood and a contrasting endcap in wood or metal.
Endcap would be something new and some knives will have metal endcaps (same material as bolster) to bring the balance point forward. Michael Rader's handles are obvious inspiration here.
Shape - coca-cola bottle.
What do ya think?
