Gert Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/19/13 Posts: 286 Loc: The Netherlands	All materials collected. Guard and pommel will be 304 stainless, the handle will be black linen micarta and the knife will have aluminum/black spacers. An M6 tang thread is TIG welded to the tang.

Gert Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/19/13 Posts: 286 Loc: The Netherlands	Here is the final result. Sorry, but I do not have the usual pics of the making process, there was some time pressure on this one. It's for a member of the French SF, who needed it for a deployment. Hope you like it anyway. The leather sheath has a Kydex layer between two layers of leather both front and back. This makes it very stiff and sturdy.

Gert Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/19/13 Posts: 286 Loc: The Netherlands	Thanks all, for your appreciated comments! I am starting now on a Model 1 in the same configuration, but with a black canvas micarta handle in stead of linen micarta. I will keep you posted. @Coach: Most certainly I will keep making knives! It gives satisfaction like you wouldn't believe!

Gert Knife Enthusiast Registered: 12/19/13 Posts: 286 Loc: The Netherlands	There we go! All the materials for a Model nr. 1 collected so I can start. This one will get a 7" Lohmann Niolox blade, stainless guard and pommel, black canvas Micarta handle and aluminum/black spacers. Edited by Gert (01/14/21 11:12 AM)
