Thank you Simon 👍 Yes it is different and not to everyone’s taste, but I plan on keeping this one for myself.

Very pleased with the end result 👍 Perfect. I knew that you would think of something very fitting for the crown end. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the Opinel No.7 that you very kindly made for me Simon and it has quite a curve to it as you can see. A credit to your skill. Also, a piece of curved antler if it`s any use to you Kevin (Shambam1962) to try to do something with it. Let me know and I`ll get it in the post. Could polish up a lot lighter.

OB The knife looks very nice with the brass pommel 👍 Yes please Chris, and I will send you a very nice wood turning parting knife in exchange 👍 I actually have 2 of the parting knives, and the second one came in a job lot of chisels. I am almost sure it is made by Crown Tools, and is very good quality and has a very slim blade 1/8” or 3/16 thickness Thanks Chris 48 minutes ago, ditchman said: out there somewhere are several knives i made with a curve like a quarter moon.....i changed computor a few years ago and have lost all the pics...
