Title: Blackwood and Ebony Puukko Knife
Post by: MattyB83 on January 19, 2015, 11:25:00 PM

I made this for a hunting buddy of mine. I can't take credit for the blade because it's a Helle Harding but I sure do need a new set of needle rasps after trying to file the tang slot in the Blackwood. It's some tough stuff. 3rd knife I have ever made.
Did up a proper puukko sheath for it too but forgot to take a pic before I gifted it. Whoops.

The blackwood looks great. It really turned out nice!

Too bad you didn't get a pic of that sheath. If it was as nice as the knife, that's a special package.

Very nicely done. Blackwood is one of my favorite materials to work with. I like the teardrop shape of the butt   :thumbsup:
