spsurfer 891 Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 Hello, I just finished this gents knife, this time with another handle form. The guard from iron with a rivited copper ring to give a rustic contrast to the elegant handle. 84mm blade from 1.3505 Iron guard with copper Turkish walnut handle with london gunstock oil finish. Handle a 115mm Pommel from sterling silver Regards Nico 3 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, it took longer, but it was my fault as I had to repeat several details - this was the first one of this kind. First I glued the ring into a grove I made on the guard and later tryed to texturize it with a small hammer - it came loose again So I had to make it again, and again.. now it's rivited to the guard with 8 tiny copper pins and glued in place as well. The pommel first was made from iron but it didn't match exactly the hole I drilled, so today I had to take it off again and made the silver one.... Next time I know how to make it Kind regards Nicolas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
