Willem O'Kelly Knife Enthusiast Registered: 03/31/13 Posts: 38 Loc: Great Karoo, South Africa	Did this one for a client from a little file he has some sentimental value too... About 1/8th thick, blade is about 5" and the handle 4.5" Handle is a mix of micarta, leather and an indigenous wood called "Red Karee" - I was looking for something with a bit of "character" to go with the file. Thanks for looking..:D _________________________ "The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good." - Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) Be on your guard against a silent dog and still water.

I chose the wood specifically for the little knots and marks it has - I think it goes well with the file _________________________ "The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good." - Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) Be on your guard against a silent dog and still water.
