Five Finished Today

[Stuart Mitchell]

This five, L to R we have a MuntjaX, Muntjac, another MuntjaX, a modified Muntjac and then a brand new pattern to be trialled...





Three of these were made 'on spec', as in with no homes to go to yet, I did this on purpose and I also purposely made them as plainly as I could, black Micarta, no liners, not even lined the lanyard holes.

I decided to do them this way with comments about knives and knifemaking from another thread in mind. A little experiment, just for me.

The one on the left in the bottom pic looks very handy shape, that would do the job I reckon.

 

[rafael fach]

I also like the new shape

#1164 looks the business

 

[25 Sharps]

Yep, #1164 looks very handy

 

[PaulM]

I agree 1164 looks the business, any further details available Stuart?

 

[Dave_45]

Any available?

 

[Stuart Mitchell]

Cheers all, much appreciated.

I got a few photos of #1164 today, I'll give it it's own thread and put some details in there.

Thanks again.

Love ‘em, Stu. What made you try the modified Muntjac?

Love ‘em, Stu. What made you try the modified Muntjac?

Just messing around really, curiosity I suppose.

I started a little batch back in September, these, #1151 was the first to go, #1170 another, the two in this thread are the remaining two.

They are probably more than likely my last two also, I think these two knives might be the last little Muntjac, of this pattern, that I make!?

Great work for me the 1162 is the choice.

Totally agree - looks a very handy length/shape.
