Post-Exam Knife WIP - finally done

 Hey all,

Finally done finishing the knife I started from the holidays, not much to say  - enjoy the pics! I also completed a kydex sheath while I decide whether or not to make a leather pocket sheath. This is probably the best one I've made so far, but I'm still learning. The glue joints could be cleaner and I need to find a way from keeping the mosaic pin from cracking out small pieces, but overall ergonomics and geometry seem to be good for now.



Skipped a few too many pictures in the shaping process to the final product - hard to take pictures with the amount of dust coming from this thing






Using a heatgun to make the kydex malleable for the press
