Title: helle knives
Post by: adam on September 29, 2008, 10:26:00 PM

I'm considering building my first knife and was gonna start with a helle blade. I was wondering if some of you could post pictures of the ones you have built to give me some ideas. Thanks

Adam

This one is an Odel blade, with antler handle and buffalo horn finger guard.

Next is a Polar blade with walnut and antler handle and a brass finger guard.

Last is another Polar blade.  This one has a handle of osage/purpleheart, with a brass finger guard.  Also has a small novaculite bird point inlaid in the handle.
