Two I am busy with

I started these two a few weeks ago but then got sidetracked .They are both 250mm long and 4mm thick

 The tangs have both been tapered down to 2mm .
this is a picture of the flat ground blade showing the distal taper

Just a picture of the 'bushy' with a scandi grind . I do put a micro bevel on after heat treatment

Both survived heat treatment , now lots of hand rubbing




This is where I got sidetracked ...........

I moulded some hessian 'micarta ' around the tang today , but I think they might be a bit on the thin side . I might add a few more layers to thicken them up
