The blades were made for me by a well known knife maker. I added the handles.

These small knives were made from Nicholson files. They come with a leather sheath.

Thanks.

I sold the one with the bloodwood handle; the other three are still available.

I am a novice knife maker. Here are the first knives I have made from Nicholson files. The two on the left are neck knives; the three on the right are boot knives.

Black linen Micarta, Cocobolo;

Black Walnut

You can see that I like to mix materials/color of wood (it's becoming a bit of a trademark of sorts).

I apologize for the black appearance of some of the blades but they are so highly polished they just reflect light. :)
